Interesting how the Daily Mail knew 7 had died before any other outlets had released or confirmed this...

I think that number probably included the 3 murderers.

That was incredible I had tears watching it.

I can't believe what's happened at London Bridge. My favourite nightclub was there and I can't count how many fantastic nights I had up there. At 10pm everything would have just been starting to get lively, all those people just out to enjoy themselves. Sickened

I think that number probably included the 3 murderers.

no, the three assailants are not included.

From Met Police:
"It has now been confirmed sadly that seven members of the public have died. In addition, as you know, we believe three suspects are dead. (Current china is 48 injured)

Ariana sang Over the Rainbow as last song of the concert. She had to stop singing at one point as the tears came.

Thanks! This works! Youtube always streams for me well, as this does, but facebook never does well. Kate Perry on now (obviously I'm behind y'all, catching up)

Is Liam about to turn up??

Wonderwall?

I was hoping for Wonderwall and Noel, that would have been epic.

It was absolutely incredible. I feel emotionally wiped out!

Music heals the heart and the soul. Last night I was scared, today my heart is heavy but it's swelled and I'm thankful, and hopeful.

Ariana Grande. What a beautiful, special soul and boy she can sing!

They have mentioned New Zealand, Australia, Canada as having citizens among the killed and injured as I was reading on here that Crowded House and Justin Bieber had been on. I will catch up tomorrow on the acts I missed.

Among the 12 arrested in the Barking area of London were 7 women, according to an official Met Police statement that did not name the suspects.
Officials warned of an increased police presence around the city, with investigators still chasing leads and potentially arresting others.

"The public can expect to see additional police – both armed and unarmed officers - across the Capital as you would expect in these circumstances," Assistant Met Police Commissioner Mark Rowley told reporters. "And our security and policing plans for events are being reviewed, the public will also see increased physical measures on London's bridges to keep the public safe."

The attack left nearly 50 people injured, and authorities say some of those injuries were "life threatening," suggesting that the death toll could rise. Rowley said that 21 of those injured in the attack are in a critical condition, with 36 hospitalized.
