Will The One Love Manchester Concert Still Proceed?



Daily Mail: Ring of steel set to protect 50,000 fans: Huge security operation in place as Ariana Grande pays tribute to Manchester victims

* Armed police will protect 50,000 fans at tomorrow’s One Love concert
* Officers will be in place for at least two hours after the finish of the concert
* Fans have been told not to take bags and be ready for security searches
* The £40 tickets for Sunday’s event, to be shown live on BBC1, were snapped up in less than 20 minutes on Thursday

A massive security operation involving armed police from around the country will be in place to protect 50,000 fans at tomorrow’s One Love Manchester charity concert.

Particular focus will be on those leaving the Old Trafford cricket ground after 22 people died and dozens were injured by suicide bomber Salman Abedi as they left the Manchester Arena last week.

Armed officers will be in place for at least two hours after the finish of the concert which features Ariana Grande, Justin Bieber, Take That, Coldplay, Katy Perry, Robbie Williams, Little Mix and Miley Cyrus.

Fans have been told not to take bags and be ready for security searches when they arrive.

WNU Editor: The performers and their crews are already in Manchester .... so I do expect the concert to proceed this Sunday. But with what has happened in London tonight .... I can only imagine how tight the security will be when the concert starts. The concert begins at 6:55 PM Manchester time, and it will end 3 hours later.

Seems foolish to hold this concern under these circumstances. I fear the UK people, the performers and these juvenile fans have no idea what evil they are dealing with here. How many bombings, stabbings, shootings, car rammings, etc., will it take for them to realize that the free life is over becasue of Islamic terror....oh wait....the English can not even say things "Islamic terror" because of the so-called "hate speech" laws which takes away their freedom of speech. Wow, the UK is f*cked both ways--once by the terrorists and once by their brain dead leaders

Anon.. having read your comment I can honestly say you don't understand the English spirit. You cannot move the British with terror. Learn from history. Read a book. Do you know anything about London? Having lived in England for many years I can tell you it's one of the great places on Earth. Those terrorists are the idiots. Plus think about this: all that training, or in the case of lone wolves all that watching videos to get jacked up, having the element of surprise on you, attacking a crowded soft target and still such low numbers... pathetic. Rookie numbers. If I were a terrorist those numbers would be ten times higher. ..just saying because it shows how pathetic they are at everything. .even their field of choosing. .lol they are just easily influenced idiots and it shows every day. Mess with England and you lose, I don't care who you are. Even if Russia were to attack. .unless they use nukes I don't see them winning in a long term conflict. .sure they'd bomb the shit out of England in the first waves. .but then the English spirit and ingenuity kicks in. .the stoism.. the discipline...and you're basically fucked. :)
