French Commandos Hit Tube One Day Too Late
Reports are unclear at this time - the BBC are reporting "a series of loud bangs"; Sky News are reporting "several explosions".
The possibility of a terrorist attack is not being ruled out at this time, although the official line from London Underground is that the incident may have been caused by a "power failure".
Evacuation: Kings Cross
There are several reports of casualties, coming in over various news agency feeds. The BBC describes the majority as "walking wounded". There is at least one account of a casualty in "critical condition".
If this is, as many suggest, a terrorist action, the cowardly perpetrators must know this: we as a nation, and Londoners in particular, are a people who have fought the enemies of freedom and against great adversity we have been victorious. Those that attempt to steal our liberties, those who challenge our freedom by violent means and seek to wreak terror and disorder onto our streets, will never defeat us. We are a people that has untied against Nazism and Fascism, we have stood firm against the oppressive force of Communism during the Cold War. We will defeat you. We will hunt you down and we will find you. Because the enemies of freedom are the enemies of the British people.
Never Surrender

There is some speculation that it was the French in the office here too. Apparently it's a power surge, which is a much more plausible reason for explosions than a power failure.
And Churchill was a spy for the KGB, so I'm not sure it's appropriate to have his photo on this post.
