My student accommodation is only about 500 metres away from the incident, and I have never found walking back between 10:30-11:00 pm to be intimidating or scary. Police are literally everywhere. Be safe It's such a busy congested area People shop there, working, tourists, patients, travelling, Students |

I made it back inside, a massive challenge mainly as all the roads are blocked by the police. We should commend them as they are doing all possible to keep people out of the danger zone and still providing advice about how to get back safely.

Vauxhall is a major centre for gay clubs - just hope that they aren't being targeted

Now will come the hashtags for peace
Prayers and vigils
People changing their profile images
Support from world leaders
Less than one week away from a general
Election
I have not heard any party leader indicating
How they will keep their people safe
And Alive

I can't imagine how you must be feeling. For those of us watching from a distance it's nothing in comparison I'm sure. |

I can't imagine how you must be feeling. For those of us watching from a distance it's nothing in comparison I'm sure. An incident like this really brings things home. Even though I wouldn't say Westminster is far from London Bridge, it was far enough to be able to continue as normal. This, however, has genuinely made me hesitant/generally fear London. Also, if there is anyone/anyone who knows anyone struggling to find somewhere to stay I believe there are refuge places in hotel/accommodation receptions along Great Dover Street, adjacent to Borough High Street. |

I am sure this post was not meant to come across like this But it seems a bit offensive Agreed. Think it's a ridiculous thing to say given the current situation I know they meant no ill by it www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-40146724This sort of occurrence is commonplace in many countries Where high numbers of people die at the hands of terror on a daily basis And the media hardly Cover these at all |

I wonder where The Perpetrators Will be from And their background It doesn't matter where they're from or what their background is - what they did was heinous and should be considered heinous in any respectable person's book. I don't think your post is helpful or necessary at all in the circumstances. |

It's frightening. I live in another part of London now but I used to commute through London Bridge every day and sometimes on the weekends. I have family who live not far from there.
My thoughts are with all those who are injured or have lost loved ones.

I don't think your post is helpful or necessary at all in the circumstances. We Will come back to this Once their origins are confirmed And it is HIGHLY relevant Given the recurrent nature of this sort of attack People being told randomly to stay safe Is rather pointless Unless we are willing to have an open discussion Otherwise it's like telling people to avoid getting ill- it is meaningless If these attacks continue in this random hateful fashion People came avoid being caught up in them |

Globe audience may well have been passing through the area at that time. Thankfully no show at the Unicorn this evening. |

We Can't We just have to accept this sort of deranged attack Hope it doesn't happen too often And accept if we go about daily business There is a small chance it could be one of any of us or someone we know who is directly affected. Next time |
