The Police have stopped a car on the M6 in Cheshire and arrested the occupants. Not a good time for asians to be moving around me thinks. Apparently all the vehicles used upto press have heavy weight suspension to hide the weight being carried in the back. I.e Jeep, Merc etc.....

I feel sorry for the people going on holiday at glasgow. Weather here is sh-it at the minute.

Yup yup is film. Yup Yup Man is a schizophrenic street man who wants to become a crime crusader like Dark Justice, his favorite comic book. As he focuses on his crime fighting crusade, his delusional traits weaken, making him seem outwardly normal. In the end, he must choose between a destructive world of crime fighting or aspiring to grow his inherent goodness

They've put it upto Critical because there was no advanced warning of an attack. Its in response to the different incidents and to keep people alert.
The press seem to think the Police are concentrating on the Bedfordshire area as the base area for these nutters.

Airport reopens after car alert

A su****ious vehicle that led police to close Liverpool John Lennon Airport has been removed for examination.
The airport was closed for more than eight hours leaving hundreds of passengers stranded. It was reopened in the early hours of Sunday.
However, a number of flights on Sunday morning were cancelled and travellers were urged to contact their airline before starting their journeys.
The alert came hours after a burning car was driven into Glasgow Airport.
Other airports across the country have stepped up security following the attack.
In a statement, Merseyside Police confirmed the airport was re-opened at about 0440 BST on Sunday.
It said: "A vehicle has been removed from the airport and taken away for forensic testing.
"Customers hoping to use the airport are advised that they should contact their airline to confirm whether their flight will be going ahead."
Scores of people were stranded on three planes which landed moments after the airport was closed at about 2030 BST on Saturday.

City centre incident
But they, along with people who were in the terminal buildings, were taken to local leisure centres, a Liverpool City Council spokesman said.
He said airport shuttle buses were used to transfer between 400 and 500 people to the Austin Rawlinson and Garston centres.
"People were obviously a bit frustrated but recognised that these things happen," he said.
Salvation Army volunteers provided blankets and refreshments, but many people had been picked up by relatives or found a hotel room for the night.
Meanwhile police also closed part of Liverpool city centre for about two-and-a-half hours because of what they described as an "incident".
An area near Lime Street station was cleared and the Adelphi Hotel was evacuated, according to eyewitnesses.
