Apparently in Stratford area. No explosion heard. Thick black smoke, indicative of POL burning.

According to Sky News it seems to be near a bus depot- might be diesel fuel burning. At this point they’re ruling out terrorism.

Already been decided as non-terrorist.

Nothing to see here just move along.

If it’s a terrorist, we’ll tell you next week when the news is forgotten for the most part.

How in hell do they know so fast?

No sign of terrorism, of course.

That's the question I always ask. The first official words are always "This is not terror-related". It bugs me -- I understand they want to avoid public panic, but it makes me distrust government announcements.
