Bombscare outside our office in Shoreditch today... 16:45 - Mar 23 with 1477 views | Keaneish | Suspect package was reported 10 feet away from our office entrance. The point of this post is to commend the response units that took control of the situation. 3 community officers were on the scene in moments on their bikes and police arrived minutes later and cordoned off the area before clearing pedestrians to a safe distance. Bomb disposal weren't long behind them and there was a large police presence at every major access point plus a helicopter in the sky all in the space of ten minutes... Incredible response to what turned out to be nothing. A hypersensitive and vigilant London but a hyper responsive and well coordinated police effort. | |

It's one of the things which will defeat the terrorists. Give them no opportunities and they will become ineffective. And yes, it can be done without destroying our own civil liberties or sense of being a reasonable society. | |
