They seem to have very quickly ruled out the other guy as a suspect. I hope he’s alright.

A very fast response from the police there
Hoping for a very good recovery for all those affected by this

Anthony Williams? Well look at that, not a migrant after all. How is that possible!? /s
Brainwashed racists go fuck yourselves.
I hope the victims all recover quickly.

But hey, “it’s not a terror-related attack”. Won’t somebody in government twig how stupid the current terror definition is? A knife-wielding lunatic on a train is very terrifying.

“He is also charged with another count of attempted murder and possession of a bladed article in connection to an incident at Pontoon Dock DLR station on 1 November.”
Sounds like a psycho who was just out to hurt/kill people.

Purposely stayed away from this I was more interested in how the survivors were getting on especially the intervening rail employee who was seriously hurt.
From what I understand there was a service user who tried to stall the attacker as well to buy the others time who was already discharged and the rail driver was rock solid for not stopping the train in middle of nowhere but thinking on their feet, I dread to imagine how bad this might had been otherwise even with speedy police response
Just a horrible thing to have happenned.

what’s that nowadays in UK, few months of community work?

It’s sad there’s such a racial element to all crimes now so that even the police report it to prevent misinformation. It feels like another Americanisation.
Anyways, hopefully the bloke gets a whole life tariff. No Home Secretary is gonna release this guy.
/r/UKpolitics top comments when this kicked off at the weekend were all about immigration levels.

So on the same day he tried to kill someone in London, travelled back to Peterborough, and then got on another train to London and tried to kill 10 more. I wonder what his backstory is. It would be extremely rare for someone to start behaving like that at 32 with no history of anything.

Strange r/ukpolitics moved on from this story quickly I wonder why.

Love the fact that the racists come out, but don’t mention that the gender of the person is once again male! Regardless of race, crimes like this are generally committed by men. (I know not all men are horrible and I’m not trying to incite anything, but there’s an irony there)
