Latest casualty report - 33 dead

It's likely to rise.

Just watched the Emergency Services news-panel report.

It appears that the Emergency Plan worked well and that there was very little, if any, panic. The public remained calm and evacuated in accordance with directions from the emergency services.

It appears that the worst number of fatalities are at Kings Cross on the Piccadilly Line. If I'd been in court today I would have been on the Piccadilly Line and at Kings Cross at the absolute worst moment. The Piccadilly Line is likely to be out for a while but most tube services will be back by tomorrow and buses are starting to run in Zone 1, as are local trains.

Well done the emergency services.

I've been listening to the BBC radio feed. Kudos indeed to the emergency services - they seem to have done a really good job.

It's good to know that all the practice paid off. I don't mean that at all sarcastically, BTW. They have been practising, because we knew it was coming. We all knew it was 'when', not 'if'.
