No description of the killer... means only one thing. Now we just have to wait for Sadiq Khan to pour his heart out and do nothing.

That’s horrible. Thoughts with the bereaved. The fact you’re not mentioning the suspect’s ethnicity might make some people think you’re up to your usual tricks.

Bring back the death penalty I'm sick & tired of paying taxes to house turds in concrete boxes just because some overpaid clown thinks they can be polished.

What is going on in this country 😡😡😡😔
