Is this true?
If it is, surely this puts real homeless people at risk from an attack by some nut job wanting to take credit for an attack on an elite British soldier?
Also, if it's true, why on earth would the information be released?
The Royal Highland Fusiliers have had a couple of hundred punters pretending to be homeless alcoholics every day for decades in order to protect the general public from the risk of being able to walk down the street WITHOUT being accosted by an incomprehensible boke-bag stinking of his own shyte.

Oh, they are pretending to be drunks. Explains a lot.

They don't need to use special forces, your average squaddie from the Queens Own Cannon Fodder, would be good enough to tackle the cowardly islamist shyte that are carrying out these attacks.
Ever noticed how every town in the country has one really badly unconvincing transvestite with a really deep voice ?.
I was told they're all from Hereford.

Complete f*cking disgrace. I get that people are angry as a result of incidents like that, but taking it out on innocent people with revenge attacks is just as cowardly and pathetic and the terrorist attack itself.
I heard on the radio that this is only a presumed terrorist attack at the moment; I assume that the police are confirming that this wasn't just some horrific accident or there was some other motivation before going firm on the terrorism angle.
Edit: Just read the comment in the paper about the driver wanting to 'kill all Muslims'. Once substantiated that puts this firmly into the terrorism category.

And the reports seem consistent it wasn't a vehicle losing control, it was instead an intentional act to mow people down.
The only decent thing is when he was taken from his vehicle they simply held him down until the police arrived, they could easily have done more and in the moment I don't know I'd blame them.

Absolutely remarkable self-restraint. Also very brave to even attempt taking him on given the knives involved at London Bridge

JUst seen an interview with a witness who said the driver was dragged out & given a couple of slaps when the Imam came out &
told them to stop, hold him down & call the Police. Good job from the Imam given the reputation some of those from Finsbury Park Mosque
have had over the years
