Ministry of Sound bomb plot

This is serious folks. Whatever you may think of MoS, it is a major, worldwide destination for many clubbers. It is great to see that y'all still maintain your sense of humor as we cannot let these pric*s win by being intimidated. However, I really, really, hope y'all keep a high degree of SA (Situational Awareness) when y'all are having a great time. As someone who goes out clubbing as much as almost anyone else on this board keeping a very high degree of SA is always on my mind.

Any loss of lives due to acts of these worthless individuals is sickening, but it would definitely be tragic if it were to happen to anyone on this board.

Take Care, Have Fun and Walk Tall This Long Weekend,

See your point, LB, but it's hard to keep situational awareness when your less than sober :lol:

I'm usually vigilant going to/from the club (as is necessary for me in Moscow) but inside you rarely pay attention to what's going on around you (other than when you're people watching :lol:).

That's why clubs, unfortunately, make good targets... remember all those German disco bombings back in the 1980s?
 
Tbh as any of you have been to Ministry will know security is really tight there so how they planned to get a bomb past numerous security guards and metal detectors and bag searches is beyond me.
 
It is very scary, but you can't run your life worrying about these kind of threats. If we did that we'd never get on a tube/bus/plane again. I still worry occasionally about bombs and terrorist attacks, but I'm also a great believer in fate, I think if my time is up, its up, no matter how much I worry about it 8O

They have pretty rigourous security checks for people working there so I can see that failing at the first hurdle.
 
they wouldn't take a bomb with them to their interview though or their fist few shifts.

if they can get a bomb on a plane they can one into a nightclub!

Thing is Ministry is a very close knit group, everyone I know there has worked there for years, it's not an easy place to infiltrate as an outsider.

As you say if people wanted to enough they can get a bomb into a nightclub, they can get a bomb anywhere if they really want to.....but I think the media is blowing this a bit out of proportion - it's like a few years ago when there was talk of them trying to blow up Old Trafford.
 
geez and what can we do? Stay at home to avoid boms in planes, public transports, bancs, clubs, touristic ressorts?
 
They were planning to get a bar job and work in the club for a while. That’s how they’d get a bomb in there. Scary...

That's my attitude. I don't worry about it. Ya do what you want/have to do.

Just get on with it, or else the terrorists have won! :lol:
 
Well I've smuggled herds of geese into the Ministry before and I know people who have taken children and llamas in the past.

With this in mind I think it would be easy to get a bomb in.

...

:lol: @ my boss's response:

"The impact could result in loss of life, injury or structural damage."

While I share Rob’s concern about being turned to podium bugsplat by (of all people) Osama Bin Laden – am I the only one that thinks it’s odd that they included structural damage in this list?

I really couldn’t give a damn if The Ministry of Sound collapsed, as long as no one was hurt.

In fact – isn’t it somewhat overdue...?

(I guess he has a point)
 
Whats Security like in Ibiza clubs these days I aint been for 6yrs but it seemed quite relaxed when I was there, Have they started doing body searches??

I really dont mind being searched entering a club it gives me a much better feeling of security.
I also get annoyed with ethnic minorities claiming that they are being targetted by police for on the spot searches.....why is this a problem for people if they have nothing to hide? (obviously strip searches I am against!!:)).
But if some Welsh terrorist group started bombing places in London, then I wouldnt complain about being searched because of my accent.

I can understand them, even if you have nothing to hide it's really annoying to be stoped all the time just cos you look different

Exactly. This idea that you shouldn't mind if you have nothing to hide is rubbish. It's exactly because you know you have nothing to hide that it gets annoying being stopped only because of your appearance. Make it universal, or leave me alone.
 
I'm so used to it I hardly notice any more...the twatty ministry bouncers have tried to get me to remove my piercings on a few occasions and nearly didn't let me in once because they thought I might cause trouble with all the Wetherspoons/Walkabout/Leicester Sq crowd. 8O :lol:
So there I was, outside with a flock of geese and (almost) nowhere to go. 8O 8O 8O

I guess it's justified though because I do have a tendency to kick off in there. :roll: :lol:
