I was going to say that it's a bloody disgrace until I read this part:

'Yet leafy, middle-class Blackheath in south London is getting missiles on its common, and another building whose roof is being used is a gated development full of young professionals.'

Seems Britain is on red alert.

It is a bloody disgrace no matter where it is Serene?? It's a bloody Games Fest for God's sake! Who is footing the bill? Is it really worth disrupting people's lives for 2 weeks for a bunch of medals??

You would think there was a war on in Central London?? sigh very mad frustrated

I just think the whole Olympics thing has got way out of proportion?

Sorry NL, I meant in the context of parking the missiles on housing commission property (because they can) as if those people have no choice and no voice.

The Olympics to me lost its excitement and true meaning many years ago.

Got that Serene. Don't suppose the tenants could charge them for parking laugh laugh laugh

As the legal eagles said - it has set a precedent now? What other reason can they find for placing rocket missile launchers, stick a 'Command' tent up in your back yard?? They have left the door wide open?? dunno

I do not see what the fuss is about the missile batteries.
As Garfield would say, big fat hairy deal.
The nervous nellies who have whined about it need to grow a pair . . . and a brain.
Al CIAda is not going to go after the missile batteries. A flat underneath one of those batteries would be the safest place in London.

It's a joke & a step to far, London is no doubt a terrorist target, if these wackjobs want to
cause mayhem during the Olympics then they will probably blow up a few tube trains & bus

That's the whole thing with terrorism isn't it .. the psychological fear of not knowing where, or when thumbs up

Not half as bad as the poor people in my suburb that were told they had to move out because the building was being demolished! For new luxury apartments? Yep the flats were there thirty years plus but now the land is worth more $$$ so all have to leave. I think I would rather put up with a missile battery for a few months rather than get kicked out all together?

Yes, I remember after the 7/7 bombings in London that I became fearful of some people who got on the tube with rucksacks be because I perceived them to be suicide bombers, I was going to get off the bus once because 2 guys I was convinced they were suicide bombers but they got off just as I was about to make my move, I guess that is that sums up a bit about the fear of terrorism dunno

Then again how would you feel living in Lebanon without them on your roof?

Planes fly overhead and drop bombs there!

I cant see the terrorist from any nation getting hold off an F17 stealth fighter any day soon, so I would personally feel like the safest person on the planet with a missile battery on my roof!
