      Brian Whelan Being Evicted For Exposing A Potential Missile Site In London?

      What an absolute farce this country is, @brianwhelanhack the guy who made the news over the weekend is apparently being asked to leave his rented property by his Landlord/s.

      Very sad to learn my tenancy is to be terminated and I will be forced to leave my apartment days ahead of the opening ceremony.
      The guy was only expressing concern for having missiles sited on his roof and the fallout of debris etc if it were to ever be authorised and a plane or similar was brought down.

      Whilst I may not fully agree with him about his concerns, as I also feel that the people of London deserve the right to be protected, the whole way this has been brought about is just wrong.

      What a crazy world we live in.

      Guarding the skies is all very well, but if a rogue plane is allowed to get close enough to use a hand held missile launcher sited close to the stadium to bring it down, the falling debris is going to do a lot of damage, maybe in a heavily populated area.

      Just watching BBC at Blackheath showing off the hardware they will use. It seems they will have long range missiles ready to take down anything that strays into the prohibited area before it gets over populated areas. I have a feeling all this is just a warning to would be terrorists that they will not succeed.
