[im barry bethel]

Missing children being taken to the nearby Holiday Inn (in case anyone is looking for their missing kids) 50+ children safe there.

LOOK AWAY NOW ROLF

Damn

UNCONFIRMED: NBC News: Law enforcement officials say at least 20 dead and hundreds have been injured following reports of an explosion in Manchester, UK.

Being stated as being an "explosion" with the quotes

[Uncle TechTip]

Now saying it was in the corridor. Probably not an accident then.

The bit which is notoriously easy to get into when the venue is emptying.

[Hangthebuggers]

Armed police have apparently just dragged someone out of a car and arrested them in proximity to the location.

Bomb squad already there now.

They're not going to call it terrorism until they're sure. It's a very heavy word to go throwing around.

"Bodies everywhere" according to scouser waiting outside the venue.

"Multiple concert goers has reported security not checking bags at entrance."

Look forward to "... in the name of national security" continuing to be the political slogan of our time.

"Bodies everywhere" according to scouser waiting outside the venue.

Was he trying to get in?

Fuckitpost. Sorry.

It was described as a crime scene earlier by a city centre apparatchik who had spoken to the plod.

[Hangthebuggers]

Some are suggesting the explosion occurred in the foyer as people were leaving, rather than a speaker/balloon in the actual arena.

Fuckitpost. Sorry.

Waiting for his wife and child.

"Shrapnel like injuries" - BBC.

[Hangthebuggers]

Again unconfirmed but paramedics are talking about 'shrapnel' wounds. Lots of images of people with bloodied legs, which may suggest a bomb in a bag left on the floor. Looking less likely it was an accident now.

This is fucking chilling. Those poor kids.

[Zetetic]

It was described as a crime scene

Which by itself means nothing, since possible manslaughter would also involve a "crime scene".

(There's significantly more compelling evidence that GMP is responding to it as if it is a deliberate attack, rather than an accident.)

[3D]

It does sound like the Sky News "balloons" narrative is rapidly deflating.

Bold stance. Let's RT to spread the word of this twitter account tragedy.

[neardark]

Unconfirmed stuff about a man with a gun at Oldham Hospital. Hopefully not true.

[Cloud]

There's always all this denial whenever a terrorist attack happens.  Maybe it was a balloon!  FFS.  We all know what and who it was.

Thoughts with the victims and hope our friends from here are ok.

Harrowing that, but also funny.

I didn't want to say, but yes.

First response sums it up:

Don't RT if you think exploiting the deaths and injuries of others to promote your twitter account is wrong. Couldn't even wait one hour ..

[neardark]

Here's where it was the IRA.

[Ambient Sheep]

We all know [...] who it was.

It must be nice to be so very certain.

"Bodies everywhere" according to scouser waiting outside the venue.

*Kelvin McKenzie rubs hands*

Does anybody really think this is some sort of technical error? Weird how there's not anything concrete out yet, two hours later. No chance it's a balloon.

[touchingcloth]

I didn't want to say, but yes.

Also there are hundreds of people on that video making comments that contain nothing more than another person's name. What's all that about? (I know it's the MEN, but any similarities with Peter Kays living or dead are purely coincidental.)
