is it a welsh choir boy or a far right crystal palace supporter
A spokesperson for Merseyside Police said: "We would ask people not to speculate on the circumstances surrounding tonightās incident on Water Street in Liverpool city centre. We can confirm the man arrested is a 53-year-old white British man from the Liverpool area.ā
well we will find out if thats true of not by how long it takes to sentence the perpetrator.
however one report from a bbc reporter says it was a blue car yet another says it was a grey car.
Tragic event and thoughts to all those affected. Hopefully the perpetrator gets everything thatās coming to him.
But iām not overly comfortable with how desperate they are to push that this heinous act was committed by a āwhiteā male. Why the need to highlight that so much and so quickly compared to other similar atrocities? 
Guess itās to stop conspiracy theories. If say nothing people will presume itās a Muslim or what ever and cause riots

Tbf IF it was a white male, they would only be stressing that to avoid a repeat of the Southport reactions.
It will all come out shortly just what happened.

Yeah I get that, but Southport wasnāt the first time weāve seen the perpetrators identity and motivation hidden for as long as possible, yet for example the time a white guy drove into a mosque, that was highlighted within 17 minutes.
The question I would ask is why they always cover/delay when itās an ethnic minority committing the act, but a white person has to identified straight away. Thatās a rhetorical question btw as I know the answer.
But if we donāt have a problem with terrorism committed by ethnic minorities as some say, then why the need for different reactions to the same tragic outcomes.
But we have.
The āāsomeāā that deny it areā¦
Well you know what they are.
I do fully get what you are getting at on this and I fully agree.
Everyone thought the same thing as soon as it came out, and tbf you can not blame them.
Maybe this time is an exception as they tell usā¦
Time will tell, but best not to speculate I reckon

A pound to a penny if the perpetrator was named Mohammed or similar then that wouldnāt have been released at the Police press conference.

The above video was taken from a different angle, warning:Contains distressing footage.
I have no idea, could it have been a medical issue such as a black out or epileptic fit?
MSN saying the driver was tooting the horn.
Hard to say at the moment, could be one of a few reasons as to why it happened.
Be interesting to see when in the future a person of foreign heritage carries out an atrocity how long it takes to get their ethnicity out in the open.
The news has said they kept some side roads open to let people drive to their businesses or go to work.
And the roads would have the police guarding it then move away as the crowd was moving along.
Some roads didnāt have physical barriers.
This car could have been parked up before the event started.
The reports i read last night said the driver stopped then reversed and then drove forward again.

Cheers Coop.
To me bits Iāve seen driver kinda found himself at back end of the parade.
From what clips Iāve seen. He tried to reverse
When he did he had people banging. On his car . He stopped tried reverse again by which time there was a crowd trying break into his car /trying stop him. Then he obviously just panicked and drove forward in fear or something.
Thatās my take on it donāt think he set out to do it. Just found himself there couldnāt reverse out panicked and drove forward.
But what ever the fact is he did it and should be charged accordingly
Iām surprised the ā ā ā ā is still alive or at least still walking.
Iām amazed he wasnāt dragged out of the car and set on.
