Bombs and bullets apparently.
Bombs and bullets apparently.
That should be 'mad for it'.
Yeah I realised I'd missed a trick there.
There's stuff on Twitter with a load of teenage girls screaming but that seems par for the course for an Ariana Grande gig.
It was Penaldo crashing the Griezmann welcome wagon.
Blown speaker, according to some randoms on Twitter
Do you at least have a link explaining what you're on about?
Twitter updates ranging from a big balloon being popped up to 15 dead.
It's pretty mental to think that, although I've never been to the Manchester Arena, if this had been at Hedon HSBC this afternoon I could have died.
What?
Confirmed fatalities, according to Greater Manchester Police.
I was in Victoria station just three days ago, so shook right now xx
EDIT: Just seen GS's post, I look a reet old cunt now.
pm me if you want hun
Or is it inbox? Think I did it wrong.
Jesus, I fully expected this to be a load of shit over nothing.
I reckon it's people being crushed as everyone panics and rushes out. It'll have been a room full of kids/teenagers too.
Definitely an explosion:

Sky News already speculating about who might have planted the bomb despite nobody knowing if it's a bomb.
I was about to go to bed as well. For fuck sake.
Fuck sake.
Tim Farron has denounced it as a "shocking and horrific attack targeting children", despite nobody confirming that it was, in fact, an attack and not just a gas explosion or similar.
It almost certainly is, but for fuck sake, let's at least wait for confirmation. The news channels have already gone into overdrive.
Latest reports seem to indicate a gas balloon blowing up and causing panic?
What's a gas balloon?
A balloon full of gas.
Unconfirmed.
Unconfirmed fake sources are saying that the speakers exploded so...uh...yeah dunno what to believe till a guy with a clipboard comes out with a press release shoving up the BBC/Sky's arses.
I mean, obviously it's probably a bit too soon, but I did laugh.
Armed police wouldn't be out for a blown speaker.
Got to be the gas balloon.
Seeing more and more sources say at least 20 dead. The Daily Express has just tweeted it.
So Holiday Inn are taking in missing children for the night according to Daily Mail.
A gunman apparently at Oldham hospital?!
19 confirmed dead.

Imagine bombing a concert full of kids, for fuck's sake.
If these suicide bomber claims are true then this is probably a new low.
How will this affect the polls?
I expect we'll cancel Brexit and start speaking French.
Good call. I've heard Macrunt is quite welcoming to forriners.
Are you smashed mate?
Horrific. How many more deaths before Europe wake up?
Horrible news to wake up to. Feels very different reading about a suicide bomber when it has happened in a city you've lived in.
And agreed. Bombing a gig full of kids is as low as it gets.
