I’ve been watching on Sky News and it’s been now 16 minutes before they mention a description of the nutter.

Black guy dressed all in black apparently.

They need to be careful not to make it sound like it’s a British person, namely Muslim and foreign lol.

It's a horrible thought for sure, but bear in mind that around 4,7 million people use UK trains every day in the UK.

Around 40 people are killed in car accidents a day in SA. 52 people have been killed in terror attacks on UK public transport in the past 20 years.

Still a safe way to travel.

In SA you know to be careful and for the most part it's predictable. In terror attacks it is the unpredictable nature of the potential.

Well yes and no. You can be as careful as you like on the roads and still encounter someone overtaking on a blind bend.

Terror attacks are certainly unpredictable, yes, but statistically the chances of getting caught up in one are miniscule.
