There are reports of folks leaving the station with burns on exposed

"the religion of piece" proselytizing.


Seen a picture of the device on twitter with wires hanging out.


the device had a timer (apparently)


Maybe LU can find out how one works,
and fit them in their line control offices.

If it is terrorism then it'll almost certainly be down to followers of the

Okay, you've got it off your chest. Be it noted that most of the vitims
of these punks are Muslims in Muslim majority countries. The daughters
of my next door neighbour but one call me "Uncle". I do not anticipate
that they will try to blow me up when they are older.
