London

So. It's happened.

Tony Blair confirmed multiple terrorist attacks on London today, resulting in loss of life, injury and damage to infrastructure.

It was chaos this morning. Total lack of communication. Rumours flying.

Power surges on the Tube leading to explosions. Well, apparently, "Power Surge" is a stock explanation designed not to instill panic into people. It seemed to work.

People worried for family, friends and colleagues. As information became more readily available, a general sense of confirmation - everyone seemed to know what it was already.

And now people are worried about the side effects. No transport, apparently for the rest of the day according to Charles Clarke. So people are going to have real difficulty getting home.

We shall wait and see. But I've got confidence in people.
