    I don't understand why the security hasn't done an individual search in the entrance of the concert. The attack was outside but according to the interviews, anybody could enter in the concert with a bomb.

        Well it's the outside bit that I've always thought will become the focus of tighter security to add to all of our woes


        The outer bit of the concert hall, the outer bit of the airport you can see having to be accessed via those airlock pods where you will be momentarily entrapped as the door closes on you and a full body scan is done.

        You can guarantee that it'll be the average Jo that gets inconvenienced.

          After the overthrow of Gadhafi, Salman Abedi’s parents went back to live in Libya but keeps UK house.
          Salman Abedi puts ISIS flag on top UK house, neighbours report him.
          Salman Abedi travels to Syria several times and at least one trip was noted by MI5
          Salman Abedi travels to Libya, he returns on 19th May and sets off suicide nail bomb 22nd May.

          The UK should not have interfered in Libya. Gadhafi did a great job of stopping extremism and the UK should not be housing extremists as so-called refugees.
          Spot on.

          It'll not stop the Daily wail readers from believing it is the EU's fault however.

            Just because someone is from North Africa doesn't mean they use camels. That is a racial stereotype and using such stereotypes makes you a bigot.

              Yes, it true, special in the big events like a concert and football.

                You should be pretty easy to spot, looking like that and carrying your four foot broadsword.

                  I just hate the way the nature of my country is changing so rapidly against the wishes of most of its population.

                  Once you're out of the EU everything will change.

                  My money reckons nothing will change regarding immigration outside the EU. In fact you'll be begging for some quality eastern europeans before to long.

                      Good for you. The road I live on is in really good condition therefore the entire UK infrastructure is doing dandy.

                      Tbh I read it in the Spiegel a while ago, no idea what the current state of German roads etc are.
