They forgot to mention that it was an islamist threat

OMG ! Thank God they knew beforehand, this reminds me of the Manchester arena terror attack 😢
-
I'm amazed the BBC didn't announce the cancellations weren't a Far Right threat. 😂
-
what? no translation of the Austrian police statement????

At this point western countries just shrug their shoulders and say, “ yep.”

Even after ariana concert government still close their eyes, these sick people want nothing than harm your loved ones!

Has Kier Starmer blamed the far-right yet?

In another universe where they didn’t cancel, we might see news about terrorist attack in concert killed multiple, injured dozens. Better safe than sorry.

Poor Taylor doesn't fit their ideology

He couldn't bring himself to say islamist...

It’s okay it was mental health reasons just ignore it.

She ought to hold them in the UK. I’m told those people aren’t a problem here and the only threat comes from a handful of far righters.

They announced it as an ‘ Austrian citizen ‘ is that the same as the ‘Welshman’ ?

If I let a bunch of strangers into my home and I get robbed, who's to blame?
-
Is it the Far Right again? Or the real culprits
-
but wait, the BBC said it is "dangerous" of Elon Musk to talk of islam being a threat in Europe

i just feel sick to my stomach watching people intentionally try to ruin spaces where people, mostly women for that matter, feel safe and happy and free to just be themselves due to some deeply misogynistic hatred towards taylor swift
-
Far right islamists presumably?
