I can't actually believe you said that. There are rather more important considerations than your insignificant trivialities.

You better believe it, i bought this ticket weeks ago, and now theres a load of "suspicious incidents" the day before i go to London.

It must be a hoax, terrorists wouldn't attacks again so soon after the last attacks, security is still stupidly high.

Spoke too soon unfortunately, as the Victoria line (in its entirety) has been closed.

Is there a site that is regularly updated where i can keep a check on tube services?

thanks.

Hey, you know people on the bus said that there was a split in a rucksack and it smelt... Was that because of the detonator going off or because of something else?

I know...that is what I'm thinking now. What with people smelling and seeing smoke. I'll not be happy for a while now...if there was something there, it could take minutes or hours to affect people. I just hope the suits are a precaution and standard practice.

Security isn't as high as it could be (it would be impossible to implement). Nobody searches bags when you get on the tube. It's too easy to take anything on. In order to have max security the tube would have to be permanently shut.

If its that "high" then why did "this" happen?

well you can hardly have police on every bus can you. What can they do short of having metal dectectors on every tube and on every bus?

The securrity is high and as viviki just said it would be impossible to get it any better unless themetal detectors are everywhere. This might have just been something else not another attack, lets hope it is.

You could easily have scanning system for the tube. The technology's here and it wouldn't even hold passengers up much.

The things they have in airports the metal detector xray things, maybe those for the tube where you just walk through them? That may work

On BBC 1 it was just declared as a serious incident. Oh dear.

Woe is you.

Don't you find the threat to British values, culture and constructs of society slightly more of a concern than how you're going to get to WH Smith to buy that pen you’ve always wanted?
