Default London Tube Murder

Are all you people complete f**king idiots. Since the 7 July and
especially since the incident at the adjacent station on the previous
day, each tube station has been ringed by police in very, very bright
yellow jackets. Only a complete idiot could fail to have noticed them.
The guy was not in the ticket hall buying a ticket, he ran in and had
enough presence to vault the gates.


It is now acknowledged that he did neither of the last two things.

You are dead right that I would run for my life but past goodness knows
how many policemen, vault a 4 foot high barrier, get cornered in tube
train.


He used his Travelcard to get through the barriers as normal, and was
thus well inside the station and well away from any uniformed police
who may have been present.

Lets face it the guy was a complete and utter (innocent for all the
liberals) idiot.


A totally invalid assertion, based as it is on grossly incorrect
details.
