Thoughts and prayers are with all my fellow Londoners who may have been affected by the London Bombings yesterday or who had relatives or friends killed or injured in the attacks.

“It is through terrorism that the people that have committed this terrible act express their values, and it is right at this moment that we demonstrate ours. I think we all know what they are trying to do – they are trying to use the slaughter of innocent people to cower us, to frighten us out of doing the things that we want to do, of trying to stop us going about our business as normal, as we are entitled to do, and they should not, and they must not, succeed.” – Tony Blair

I hope everyone not just in the U.K., but all over the world will join in the two minute silence that will be taking place today at noon (gmt). We need to stand together.
