Rehearsal and repetition.
The "crashed car" gets taken away;
Resuscitation Man tells his tale again;
Joe Talent remains baffled and bewildered by the farce that surrounds him;
Mayor Boris calls what has happened:
"pretty clear[ly]" "a sickening and unforgivable act of violence";
[on 7/7, by around 5.30pm, Tony Blair declared in an address to the nation "it's pretty clear that these people act in the name of Islam"]
[How he knew who "these people" (or if there were any people) were not IRA, Tamil Tigers or Serb Nationalists was NOT clear, not is it now so...]
Unjournalistic emotive language already common currency:
"...a young man was butchered in broad daylight"
The EDL swarm on Woolwich High Street and begin mugging for the camera of their own YouTube Channels in front of their English Pro-Zionist Skinhead flags;
The Mets stage a half-hearted riot charge in defence of the Wimpy Bar.
Met Commissioner Bernard Hogan-Howe reads his lines from the script on cue.
COBRA convenes.
But what of the National Security Council...?
