I can see where the talk of young guy is coming from, there's copies of videos circulating on Twitter showing a similar car before the actual incident. The young driver of that vehicle was experiencing trouble with members of the public, I can't speculate why that was but the car had it's back window busted. Seemed to be quite a few extremist accounts (what I call nutjob accounts) circulating the material...I don't know how else to best describe it. But I reiterate it is a 53 year old man that the police have arrested.

I haven't seen that video, so I don't know. The reason I don't know is because I cannot see the driver in that video, I can also not confirm the registration, because I never saw the reg of the vehicle, where the cops arrested the man - so I cannot know if it's the same vehicle or an identical one.
 
I was at the parade between Old Swan and the Jolly Miller (about a mile). There was at least 100k of us there just between those 2 points. I'd guess about 1 in 20 there were Asian, btw, so when the news first broke @ 18.15 I just knew it wasn't terrorism, and I'll tell you why.

After the parade had left the Jolly Miller and turned towards Tuebrook I made my way towards my sister's just 400 yards down Mill Lane in West Derby. Me and @ about 20k others, I tell you. As cars were parked on both sides of the pavement all the way to West Derby village, we all slowly squeezed down the middle of the road. it was like being on the old, standing Kop. But it generally was good-natured, with pushchairs, and wheelchairs (some old geezer on a mobility scooter as well). Those 400 metres took 45 minutes. Point is, most of the the cars on the pavement realised they weren't going anywhere soon and sat mostly resigned, but one or two were visibly fuming. Then some ****wit tried to edge out of a side road into the crowd - even the other cars were winding down their windows and beeping their horns at him. There was just no way on God's green earth that anyone with half a brain would think they could drive through that crowd, impatient ****er.

Fantastic, brilliant day with over a million of us from all over the globe out singing in the rain - and some entitled **** is now the news instead of the scenes on The Strand 20 minutes before. May he rot in ****ing hell.

You called him some entitled **** mate, but did you actually see the man arrested to know it was the same vehicle you are discussing here? Otherwise it's just speculation on your part.
 
<laugh> only if you honour popping off to a forum strictly for armchair fans, first ...

The police have confirmed the 53 year old man was the driver of the vehicle according to SKY News, therefore it rules out the video of the young man driving on Twitter, in my mind anyway.

Trouble is with driving, you hope everyone is sane behind a wheel, the sad reality is people can do stupid unpredictable things when panicked, fight or flight.
