Looking at his profile on Facebook, he's taken his son to places usually used by infantry / special forces for training .. in the breacon beacons pen y fan, he's been camping and wrapped some mess tins in bags , and also has a post showing the motto of the United Kingdom ..


I'd say he's definitely an ex soldier , what kind of soldier could be the reason this is still going on longer than it should have .. I know it sounds Hollywood but just saying what I see

Yeah it explains the guns.

Worrying if he does have guns himself.

Hopefully he gets talked round.

If you look at his profile he does "British Army" in his work history. From 2007 it says.

Really interesting information coming out if true. Particularly in the light of the Alfie case. Allegedly he’s saying the kid doesn’t want to go home cause he’s being badly treated or worse. What a hard situation to deal with for all concerned

If that’s the case he’s done the worst possible thing. More likely he loses contact now. Assuming he stays out of prison.

I get that and I think on balance I completely agree. Just interesting that everyone was saying if it was their grandchild they would have taken him and not let him go

Its hard. Thinking your kids are being harmed can make one do crazy things.

Yeah I get it, if my daughter was actually being harmed there's a difference between not letting her go back and a full on armed seige.

That sort of thinking though can drive people to do mad stuff, when it comes to their kids I am pretty sure even the most calm, friendly people could show a completely different side.

We had an allegation made up against us and had police and social services round it was extremely scary even though we knew we hadn’t done what was said

I’m within the cordon now, they’ve extended it. Pretended I wasn’t going to the city arms to get out.

They've extended it? I would like to know the logic behind whats has driven that. It can't be intel on explosives otherwise they would evacuate as well.

You're better off camping out in City Arms though, by the sounds of it.

Imagine if you are forced to stay there until it's all sorted?

Hill might be traumatised by this. I think we should join him there to offer our support....

It will be how close that last cordon allowed people to be to an armed officer. Within 10 metres. And there was loads of press knocking about. Full view of the house as well. Now they are out the way down by the library.

That makes sense.

I hope you have the wetherspoons app. Post your table number on here and we'll order you some random shit.

That's a good point.

Good man, it's a working man's right to turn obstructions into an opportunity to go for a pint. I did it nearly every day when commuting back from Leeds with so many delayed trains

This is the sort of unsung heroism that often goes unnoticed in these situations

I reckon it's worthy of at least an article on Telegraph.

"5 things we learnt from the man who fought his way through armed police"

"I'm hearing reports a gentleman has now arrived at the scene with a jug of Wetherspoons Sex on the Beach and 6 bags of McCoys, more as we hear it"

Assume he's not sleeping at night, he must be wired on something

They're not calling the navy in as well are they?

Not since the Old Clarence was the Port O Call.

Whatever happens, and obviously we all hope and prey the babbie comes out unharmed (although this can’t be good for him mentally), it’s safe to say the guy will be seeing the inside of some sort of cell.
