Cambridgeshire Train Attack

North London (outer)

The previous discussion has been removed, however as usual with this type of event, it was full of people with little information jumping to the wrong conclusion blaming asylum seekers, immigrants and Muslims.

Police have charged 32-year-old Anthony Williams from Peterborough with 10 counts of attempted murder, one count of actual bodily harm and one count of possession of bladed article.

In spite of the usual right-wing bile erupting across social media, there is no evidence this was a terrorist attack.

We don't know all the detail yet. The police are adamant that it wasn't a terrorist attack and that the perpetrator of this heinous crime acted alone. From hearsay of what he is alleged to have shouted he was clearly deranged. But who are we to judge?

Latest is that he has been charged and will be in court pronto; charges added for an incident on the Docklands Light Railway in the early hours of the same day.

Whatever the ups and downs the LNER staff member who tried to stop him, suffering terrible wounds in the process but saved others, deserves full recognition for his bravery. I think he merits a George Cross. The government has been too stingy in awarding it in recent years. Not a lesser award and not a piece of plastic from a newspaper.

Or... because the systems are overwhelmed and undefunded, he will be released back into the 'Care in the Community' scheme! Within a few months... he could be back living in a street near you, with the thousands of other mentally sick individuals that need secure psyciatric treatment! We live in a sick dysfunctional society where many just can't cope!

Good point. Hopefully they will make a full recovery from their physical wounds but they may not from their mental wounds. Would be good if they could forget that terror they encountered but may never do.

The perpetrator is obviously mentally ill, on drugs or both! He has to be held in a secure facility away from the public. He was fortunate not to be shot by the police!

Not sure that shooting is the answer. Another guy was arrested but later released as being innocent. What if he'd been shot? As it was the police did taser the perpetrator which was a wise move.

People have sadly gone mad since time began. But random mass stabbings and shootings is a modern phenomenon ... that has become much more common since the birth of the digital age. 'Madness' as an explanation is far too simplistic.

Guys "on a mission" on a Friday night and the football thugs were perhaps more recent outlets for this sort of "madness",

But people "going mad" is certainly not a new phenomena. It was hidden in richer families and beaten down and ignored in poorer ones.

Aha, I did use the simple term "going mad" as an shortcut to try point out it wasn't a racist attack.

Apologies if its been taken out of context.

Having a mental crisis, a breakdown, may have been better terms.

He seems to have been out with the knife earlier in the day.

I'm just finding it bizarre that some people upon finding out he's British and not an immigrant have changed to it must be racist instead.

But to characterise this as a racist attack surely the make up of the passengers needs to be known, or if the attacker allowed non whites to escape whilst targeting white people, no idea if this has been the case, but until such time no such statement can be made… even if the colours of skin/ethnicity were reversed.

Not sure you have read my post to which you have ‘replied’ … it can’t be characterised as racist until more details are known, and the attack regardless is being taken seriously.

I have a friend whose partner has been sectioned several times. They have a repeated pattern of mental health spiraling out of control.

Due to the years upon years of cuts, the authorities are unable to intervene to help until they are a danger to themselves or others.

People moan about 'mental health' being used as an excuse for acts like this, but in reality, someone can be spiralling out of control and be literally screaming for help but won't get it until they reach the point where incidents like this are likely.

I also noted that the accused gave his address as 'no fixed abode' so yeah, if we had safety nets to stop people getting to the point where they are a danger to others, we might get fewer incidents.

Oh I think the knifeman made that point perfectly clear himself, by his actions during their reign of terror with a large sharp blade.

Because back then, what you refer to as unhinged people were locked away in insane asylums.

And yes they did, mass murders go back many centuries.

The easiest weapon to buy now is a large kitchen knife, available just about anywhere including amazon.

I hate to point it out but its almost as if cutting funding years ago to mental health support and policing was a bad thing.

Going by the attempted murder charges, several of the people he stabbed on the train were black or Asian so it does not appear to be either racially or religiously motivated.

Within minutes of the news initially breaking, one of the right-wing groups - Britain *****, falsely posted on X that the suspect was shouting 'Allahu Akhbar'. It would appear that a number of our forum members use these people as a news source.

Terrifying? Certainly… but not necessarily what defines a terrorist attack. There is a clear definition of what constitutes a terrorist attack, which is typically motivated by ideology, political affiliation, or groups.

I agree. Mental health services have been drastically underfunded for decades. I tried for over twenty-five years to get help for a family member. It came to a head when they were arrested at home early one morning and after a little while in gaol they were sectioned and FINALLY got some help.

"Maybe not technically a terrorist attack, but it certainly sounds like a racist attack, presumably most if not all the victims were white.

Imagine the media headlines if the races of the people involved were reversed

But to characterise this as a racist attack surely the make up of the passengers needs to be known, or if the attacker allowed non whites to escape whilst targeting white people, no idea if this has been the case, but until such time no such statement can be made… even if the colours of skin/ethnicity were reversed.

Isn't it the trend these days that if something is perceived to be motivated by racism ... Then that has to be taken seriously?

If the shoe was on the other foot ... Starmer and the whole of his cabinet would be photographed taking the knee with suitably sincere expressions of servile contrition.

And branches of Foot Locker would be ransacked during episodes of urban unrest/rioting/looting.

Think you'll find it was your right wing chums looting Currys and Greg's recently, you vile stereotypical racist

A response worthy of Owen Jones himself ... Congrats

A subject indeed rife with stereotypes

Making assumptions again, I'm a long, long way from the views of Owen Jones, he's as divisive as you right wing bigots, a view taken from the MANY posts of yours with far right, uneducated views."

But you sound just like dear Owen.

No, I'm putting you down as 'an Owen'

"He'll no doubt say he has "mental issues" and they'll let him off.

what bubble are you living in ? Mental issues or not he will receive a heavy sentence as he should. Idiot.

And what bubble are you living in? You overlook that he already has form and was 'Known to the authorities" That is said time and again when a deranged person is arrested for killing or harming people. From the Govt. downwards they have to do better than this!

Not sure what news you are reading or watching but everything I've seen has stated that he WASN'T known to the authorities. But that doesn't suit your narrative does it?"

Wrong. I have heard it on several legacy media bulletins including the BBC that he was known to them, so your snide remark about me does not apply.

…..but there are many posters on a variety of sites that are promoting the 2 tier policing narrative, the freedom of speech narrative, yet many of the same people are now asking for more police action on those ‘known to the authorities’ that sounds like the thought police and is most certainly an infringement, being known isn’t the same as committing an offence, if folk are getting hot under the collar about arrests following tweets, then arrests for being known to the police are even worse.

Why do these "mental health cases" think the solution is to go out and knife people? Just get therapy and antidepressants etc, like the rest of us!

Could it be they're using it as a shitty get-out to reduce blame for just being evil twats?

I could be wrong but I am guessing impulse control is an issue with many mental issues, they don’t think they just do..

There are many more mental illnesses than depression, you know, like schizophrenia, personality disorders, psychotic disorders. There's also nowhere near enough funding to manage the escalating problem.

"All attacks like this there should be a shoot to kill policy by the police "

There is no policy or order in the uk or eu where kill would be involved

Yet a couple of months ago at Milton Keynes train station an adult male with learning difficulties was fatally shot by police after brandishing a knife in station square!

The officer who shot the gun was investigated by police and found not to blame!

I personally think the fact that the officer had been given a firearm by his peers for protection of the public should never have been investigated after he used it anyway !

Surely every jurisdiction, even those who routinely carry firearms do not have a shoot to kill policy, and after a shooting an investigation is held as a matter of course.

"He moved at speed towards officers with the knife before a shot was fired by police."

Fuck him.
