Liverpool terror attack

The bomb went off with the driver still inside the vehicle. I’m holding off before hailing the driver as a hero. I’m sure they’ll be a go fund me set up for him though very soon…
Had the bomb gone off properly, there'd probably have been nothing left of the car or the driver. I'd say it didn't explode fully, maybe just the detonator went off or the material caught fire rather than exploding. The driver clearly realised something had happened and had the presence of mind to get out sharpish.

Good job it wasn't Ole at the wheel!
 
Liverpool mayor Joanne Anderson also praised his actions.

"The taxi driver, in his heroic efforts, has managed to divert what could have been an absolutely awful disaster at the hospital," she said.

"Our thanks go to him and our emergency services, and authorities have worked through the night to divert anything further, and we've all been on standby and in constant contact to provide any support that's needed."

She added: "Well, we knew that the taxi driver had stood out and locked the doors, we knew that early on."
Not like the scousers to embellish a story is it? Lol

That's not what I'm hearing, he was outside, just in time.
I'm not saying you're wrong and I'm right, just that the reports,
including the mayor's, confirm this.
 
Watch the video mate. It’s pretty clear he’s still inside when it detonates.
The one I've seen doesn't make it clear, although I'm not saying you're wrong. This part of what is a dreadful atrocity foiled, isn't that important though, the best result is the driver now Ok and out of hospital, and the bomber now resembles a dropped pie.
