Manchester Evening News reports that it was a suicide bomber and that children are among the deceased.

[Judy in the sky]

22 confirmed dead, including children , 59 injured. Believed to be a suicide bomber who has caused this. In the coming days , expect to hear "He was a deranged individual." "He was mentally ill." "He was let down by the NHS mental health unit." Expect everything apart from the truth. Expect Sadiq Khan , telling the people of Manchester "This is what you should expect , living in a large city."
Let's wait and see who leaps to the defence of this individual.

He doesn't have to. You mentioned your hopes here:
