Eight other children were injured and two adults are also in a critical condition.

    BBC also reporting that "3 children died". No, they were murdered. There is a huge difference

    WHAT ABOUT A THANK YOU FOR THE YOUNG MAN THAT WENT IN AND STOPPED THE ATTACKER?

    In 2004 David Blunkett lost his job as Home Secretary when he disclosed the age range, sex and ethnicity of those committing over 95% of all violent street crime in London and other cities. In 20 years things have got much worse. If you won't recognise the problem, you can't fix it.

    Starmer doesn’t speak for me or any decent British Citizen he has blood on his hands like most of his party.
  • What an insincere little marionette ..... with davos pulling the strings to make his jaw flap.

    He’s giving 90,000 the right to stay that’s 90,000 more potential terrorists.
  • Don't you dare speak for the country..... Actions speak louder than words....... Sort it.

    I have no trust in starmer or our system, we should have addressed this problem 25 years ago
  • So, meaningless words, immediately deflected onto the emergency services. This is the fault of 25+ years of weak, clueless, governments.
  • Ah Tony Blair policy's coming home to roost. Shame Tories sat on it and didn't stopped this. Labourstan will just carry on the job
  • @drepachi77
    UK Citizens are far too Kind and Respectful
  • Sorry Prime Minister, hollow words. A lost nation at breaking point. We need strong leadership not more pearl clutching, hand shaking and meaningless speeches. Three horrific incidents in a week, these types of incidents rarely happen 25 years ago, if at all. Caused by successive weak governments. The first act of government is to protect and ensure a safe cohesive society. Enough is enough!
