Is it known whether anyone (apart from the people in the car) was hurt in the Glasgow airport thing? It seems a really strange thing to do as a terrorist attack, especially since the car didn't seem to have explosives in it.

I just looked on wikipedia to see whether there are any specific destinations you can get to from Glasgow that you can't from other British cities, but nothing leapt out at me.

I think he means "why Glasgow and not Edinburgh" - where they were hosting the state opening of the Scottish Parliament today. Seems to me an incident there would've caused a bigger fuss.

The only thing I can think of is those death threats to Mohammed Sarwar.
Oh yeah...still, if that was the case wouldn't they target something a little closer to Glasgow itself? The airport's in Renfrewshire, a bit out of the way. I suppose it does make a statement though Sad

If that turns out to be true, I'll feel pretty sick too. Those bastards deserved their sentences and then some - and you're right, it was a racist murder.

Yep, even more airport security...that's just what America needs.
