Read Victims named after terrorist attack in Manchester
Rabbi Daniel Walker said the terror attack in Manchester was a “desecration”.In a joint statement with Heaton Park synagogue’s executive and trustees, Walker said the “loss we feel is beyond words”.

Sir Steve Watson, the chief constable of Greater Manchester Police, said:

“this injury may have been sustained as [an] unforeseen consequence of the urgently required action taken by my officers to bring this vicious attack to an end.”

Personally, if you consider death following the discharge of a firearm an “unforeseen consequence”, I think you’re doing something wrong. Seems more like an inevitable consequence to me. Bloody stupid thing to say.
