@Hanifkureishi I tread on the sand lightly, my breath shallow, infused with salt. I press my twisted toes into the spongy weed and frost my wrinkled flesh with sand. My tannin coloured hair is full of knots. Sometimes I swim. Sometimes I sleep. Nobody knows I’m here. Nobody cares.

@BackonSammy @SteveWhiteRail @Se_Railway That’s really kind of you. Let’s just hope nobody has to do that again. I’m sure when they review the CCTV, Southeastern managers will realise and be in touch. Best wishes.

@BackonSammy @SteveWhiteRail @Se_Railway Hi Sammy. Thank you for speaking up. I was the one who hit the emergency button. People were panicking at the top of the escalator and shouting ‘move, move’ because they couldn’t get off. I could see people starting to slip and fall in front of me. I was genuinely shaken.

@networkrail @ros_young @Se_Railway @Mark_J_Harper @NetworkRailSE Yes, do you think this is acceptable. Seriously London bridge is not safe since new timetable

@Se_Railway great decision reducing the number of trains during peak times and forcing 1000s of passengers via London Bridge !!! It’s chaos at London Bridge and since the new timetable trains are still not on time !!! Joke. But carry on striking and increasing the fares!

[Vanessa Edwards @_vanessaedwards]

@Se_Railway @NetworkRailLBG Thank you for that reassurance. They should have called the police earlier. Honestly, you need to organise an investigation and review the CCTV. You were seconds from a horrible accident on that escalator.

[Vanessa Edwards @_vanessaedwards]

@NetworkRailLBG @Se_Railway Uncontrolled crowd pushing and shoving on #LondonBridge concourse. I had to hit the emergency button on the escalator to Platform 7 to avoid a horrible accident. It will be a miracle if nobody is hurt this evening.

[Courty @Courty40]

@Se_Railway how the hell can you claim this is safe.. you divert 1,000’s of passengers to London Bridge with your crappy new timetable and then kettle them when too many turn up. People keeling over and fights breaking out. Congrats on making a bad situation into a disaster..

How to act like you’re in a daytime tv ad about your own funeral:

1. Be about 55
2. Look in peak health
3. Be absolutely delighted about your funeral
4. Laugh a lot with your wife/kids who also seem delighted about the prospect of your death
5. Maybe pop open some champagne
