kendellrt Posted June 30, 2007 Posted June 30, 2007 This is all over the "Breaking News" here also. Our hearts are with you. Is there any idea who is behind it all? Maybe someone trying to shake things up, seeing the change to a new PM in place as a prime time to do so? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
suchuwato Posted June 30, 2007 Posted June 30, 2007 Hmm.. well the timing is obviously important... we've just got a brand new cabinet, and as you said Gordon Brown is now Prime Minister. It's also only a week until the anniversary of the July 7th, 2005 attacks in London. Latest news is that the Police have said that they suspect the attacks are related, and that one of the men arrested in Glasgow was carrying a suspect device on his person. ---- http://www.mi5.gov.uk/output/Page311.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
