Everyone in the UK was holding back it seems but our American friends have released everything. | |

It has been known since early on today, but with the US media going it was felt there was no point allowing speculation to continue. Better to confirm than just allow nonsense to be peddled. | | | |

The police must have requested that they hold back. Presumably because it would compromise their investigation into accomplices. | | | |

Nothing to make? Our country offered his family asylum from a tyrannic regime, so we don't know, but i'd assume he was brought up to thank the UK, not target it. However kids get targeted, fall into the wrong crowds etc. He was known to Mi5, so it does appear he was certainly a person of interest, if not deemed an imminent threat. Sadly, we can get intelligence wrong, or something changes that spooks an attacker to bring forward a plan. I'm sure we'll find out more in the coming weeks. | | | |

They probably have hundreds of "people of interest" . They cannot keep all of them under constant surveillance. | | | |

It's stating a fact. He claimed the same after the Westminster bombing and he was from Kent. He tried to do exactly that straight after that attack. There has been plenty of such comments about "stop them coming in" all over social media today from certain sections of society. Nothing shameful about it, but understand why some will think that. It wasn't political point scoring, it was purely a point to say wait for the facts before jumping to a biased view of the world and making yourself look a moron. [Post edited 23 May 2017 17:17]

Who f*cking cares what they've said? It's been less than 24 hours since 22 people have died and most of them haven't even been named yet. Now isn't the time to debate political viewpoints. Sick of people using these events to push their agenda, whether that's on the right or left of politics. | | | |

I'm not pushing an agenda, unless that agenda is wait for information before making racist/xenophobic comments that have no basis. I care what they've said, because it makes people's jobs much harder and could cause revenge attacks against other innocent people. | | | |

He was born here and lived here his entire life, that tends to make you British. Take your ignorant, racist views & **** for a while won't you...

Whilst I agree that point scoring is wrong on all levels, I've seen more of it from that c*** Tommy Robinson claiming Muslims are to blame and to kick them out than I have of the opposite. | |
