Just seen a post by GMP confirming fatalities. Hope it's another fake post.

what a f@cking world we live in where people do actually post fake reports about stuff like this...i mean, there are some dreadful wums on here, but can you imagine the type of person who does that

It's not fake. It's a terrorist attack. Comfirmed fatalities. Plenty other injured.

But congratulations on insulting someone on a serious thread about a terrorist attack

Loser

this doesn't sound like a fecking balloon going off by a speaker

I hate this fecking world......Arggggggghhhhhh

Stop killing people you utter utter utter twaaaaaaatttttt5555

Oh God.

A number of fatalities.

Sorry for being glib earlier.

Not good.

Someone posted a picture on Twitter of bodies (taken from some online rescue training video) and the Sun online ask if they could use it

Oh my god I feel sick

this is an utter disaster man, christ sake

A gig where kids would be coming out after show they probably had the time of their lives at

These terrorists planned this

String the bombers up and let them be eaten by insects

I know it's a natural thing to do, but we shouldn't jump to conclusions.

Mostly going to be teens and young women at the concert. Don't have the words to describe the type of person who is targeting a bunch of kids at a concert...

I hope the 72 virgins waiting in heaven for these bombers are Hafi types who torture them for eternity about possession stats

Apparently 13,000ish. Don't know for sure.

Apparently Manchester arena is the busiest arena in the world. I've only been once to see the WWE

18,000 I think.

A friend works in A&E - huge balloons filled with gas popped & there was a stampede because everyone thought it was a bomb! #ManchesterArena
