    Strange time for a terrorist attack, when there are not many people about

    That isn't what a terror attack is. By your logic a dog attacking a child is a terror attack because it causes terror to people who are there.

    Doesn’t it have to be solely intended to cause terror for that definition though? Otherwise everything should be defined as one. For all we know at the moment it could have been done for any reason.

    Well said. I should have said let's not assume this is Islamist terrorism.

    There again, it could be a targeted attack intended to injure or intimidate one person only. It appears there has only been one injury.

    We simply don't know yet.

    Poor and slow update is that. By a lack of clarity they've allowed the town to receive national (and possibly international) negative attention

    The people involved have caused terror to members of the public

    That doesn't make it a terrorist attack.

    It would cause terror to me if I saw somebody stabbing the guy he caught shagging his wife but that wouldnt make him a terrorist.

    The word 'w@nker' rarely sums up any woman.
    Here we have the exception to that rule.

    There's one lovely person I'd deprive of oxygen, given the chance.

    Terrorism is a made up word. Nonsensical. "Religious Terrorists", whatever ethnicity, are just misinformed nutters who commit murder on their perverted beliefs of an imaginary friend.

    There's already a stall outside Sports Direct selling those, he's put the fidget spinners and e-cigs to one side.
