He was allowed out a year ago after serving time for his part in a plot to blow up the London Stock Exchange."

'My son, Jack, killed in this attack, would not wish his death to be used as the pretext for more draconian sentences or for detaining people unnecessarily.'

Beautiful words from a grieving father.

Incredible. True heroes. #LondonBridge pic.twitter.com/0hduOInM9I

Nothing but admiration and grateful awe for the brave bystanders that took on what appeared to be a suicide bomber with fire extinguishers and an antique narwhal tusk grabbed from Fishmongers Hall. Thank you Lukasz for your tremendous heroism. pic.twitter.com/8awt9ilAtA

The bravery of ordinary people who tackled the attacker not knowing the explosive device he was wearing was a hoax
Members of the public and our emergency services who risked their lives are the best of us
