Vehicle hits pedestrians in London's Finsbury Park
One person arrested after 'major incident' in north London, Metropolitan Police say.


A vehicle has struck pedestrians in north London, causing "a number of casualties", UK police have said.

Metropolitan Police said one person had been arrested after officers and other emergency services arrived to the scene at Seven Sisters Road in Finsbury Park.

"Police were called just after 0020hrs [23:20 GMT] ... to reports of a vehicle in collision with pedestrians," they said in a statement, calling the incident "major".

"There are a number of casualties being worked on at the scene," they added.

The Muslim Council of Britain said it had been "informed" that a van had run over worshippers as they left a mosque in Finsbury Park.


London's Ambulance Service said on Twitter that it had sent a number of resources to the scene.

I've counted 7 injured. 3 are seriously injured. Subhanallah. I can't believe what I witnessed tonight. # #FinsburyPark

Unconfirmed witness reports said some of those hit were Muslims, who had been leaving the mosque after evening prayers during Ramadan.

‘Enquiries continue,’ police said. ‘More information will be released when confirmed.’

Willing to bet this wasn't done by a Muslim. They are smart enough to choose well known spots. Also, Deranged Muslims always execute it better. Pedestrians get run over and no one does on the spot? Very poor effort. F for commitment. :tsk:

We should flash headlines like

"Is Britain headed towards a civil war?"
Or
"Rebels roam free in London as May says time to junk Human rights"
Or
"Sadiq Khan was right. Attacks are a part of living in big cities (as long as its named London)"
Or
"Van rams pedestrians outside Mosque. London Mayor Sadiq Khan says 'I told you so'".

We shouldn't stick to that age old thinking. Indian diaspora is huge. Perhaps the biggest in the world. Most of them read Indian media. Even if they read and update ther facebook f twitter page, their foreign acquaintance alone is enough to get a massive reach.

The correct reasoning would be 'our media for the most part sucks up to the west and their narrative. So they won't even bother'

@mendosa sir what are Your views ?
Ya Allah, rasgulla!

This is even riskier than terror attacks because terror planning can be tracked by their intel agencies online but this sort of lone wolf attack, especially successful lone wolf attack, has the potential to provoke people from both sides to indulge in it and things can quickly spiral out of control. Someone who is on the brink of a break down does not have to announce his plans on the internet beforehand. He can become 'just do it'.

One thing is clear, someone is doing this to Theresa May, it could be CIA, it could be MI6 itself, but the chain of events are being orchestrated to create a general feeling of distrust and rebellion against the decision makers.

Obviously terror attacks have never brought an entire nation down, but these attacks have a limited goal to occupy public mindspace and they have won in that regard. This also creates the canvas for dismissing several of their narratives, especially the one where they claim to be a super power who can tell others how to run their country. First and foremost, with an incensed domestic anger, the British establishment cannot spend media bandwidth on 'the issue in Kashmir' given that their own people are dying. Even if they do, the public sympathy will be against jihadis.

There could be multiple aspects of this attack. Growing attacks by Muslim rebels on local Britons in past could have given bad name to Muslims as a whole. So it might have been attempt by Muslim rebels themselves to orchestrate an attack on their own community by hired person.

It could be a Shia-sunni conflict. Who knows.

Or it may be a local Briton who may have been frustrated by the growing appeasement by government/mayor for Muslim community. It might be a start of Christian-Muslim conflict that has a history of 1000s of years in past. It may be a revival of the same hostility.

Actions of violence should be denounced everywhere. Terrorist act is a terrorist act. It should be denounced. Terrorist may be a Muslim or a Christian. He should be condemned. Media, governments should have balls to call terrorism as terrorism. There is no good or bad terrorism. Anything that hurts communities and civil society should be called as terrorism.
