So what is it:
orPolice have not launched a manhunt in relation to the attack, and said there was no one else in the car and no intelligence of a further risk to the public in London or elsewhere in Britain.
It's just so confusing...Theresa May has said the UK's terror threat level remains at "severe", following this morning's crash.
It means a fresh attack is highly likely.“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment

Using single or dual attackers in multiple waves is hardly confusing, its standard tactics.Originally posted by darmstadt View PostSo what is it:

Maybe the person caught is known to fraternise with other suspects who have gone underground, therefore future attacks are likely?Comment

Apparently he was being tailed by a white van. So maybe that spooked him into switching to a spur of the moment Plan B.Originally posted by NickFitz View PostThe guy's obviously not very good at the planning-and-executing-a-terrorist-attack thing.
For a start, Parliament isn't even sitting at the moment. ...Work in the public sector? Read the IR35 FAQ hereComment

Westminster terror attack: CCTV shows car mowing down cyclists | Daily Mail Online
Police raid addresses in Nottingham and Birmingham over Westminster 'terror attack': British suspect who WAS known to officers but not MI5 'used a Ford Fiesta bought two months ago to mow down 15 cyclists'
Terror suspect in twenties arrested after Ford Fiesta hit crowds and smashed into barriers outside Parliament
Suspect was pulled from the car by armed officers who surrounded vehicle outside St Stephen's entrance
Unnamed man is refusing to co-operate or give any potential motive but he may have aimed at police officers
Pedestrians and cyclists describe car on wrong side of road then swerving deliberately to hit them at 50mph
Crash came 17 months after Khalid Masood killed 5 on Westminster Bridge before murdering PC Keith Palmer
Security beefed up since then and Ford Fiesta was stopped by new barrier able to repel speeding lorry
Did you see the incident or know the arrested man? Email martin.robinson@mailonline.co.uk

It is understood police have identified the man and that he is from the Midlands. The owner of the car is known to police, the Guardian understands, although it is unclear whether the suspect is that owner.Comment

A fresh attack remains as likely as before the attack, but plod and the spooks have no specific intelligence about one. Not too hard to comprehend.Originally posted by darmstadt View PostSo what is it:

The driver is a recently British fellow of Sudanese origin, so probably Muslim, but no motive has been announced although it's still be treated as a terrorist incident.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't existComment

Why? Most people from (Northern) Sudan are Muslim. If a Muslim carries out a terrorist attack, then there's strong possibility it's related to his interpretation of his religion. He certainly seems to be following the pattern "known to the police".Originally posted by LondonManc View PostInfract yourself you hypocrite!!!
