The council has been leafletting central Brixton about the stabbing: "The council has put in place a reassurance plan with the police". Extra council wardens patrolling, extra police officers, more Tfl staff in and around the tube station. And a list of places to get support if you are traumatised. And warm words about how the council is working with lots of organisations...etc.

As much as I am disgusted with the stabbing I fucking despise 'thoughts and prayers' even more.

No you don't, unless you've lost all sense of proportion.

Solidarity against neoliberalism!
saw this course for 'mid life' women wanting to get on in creative industries. coming up at Brixton Finishing School - which I have never heard of. They also seem to do courses for younger people too. I think creative industry means advertising agency.
London’s first ever digital training course specifically designed to bring midlife women back into the workplace is now open for registration. In partnership with Brixton Finishing School and WPP, some of the brightest minds in the digital industry have come together to create a free, flexible 8 week programme to give one of the world’s most valuable resources — midlife women — all the tools, confidence and connections they need to pioneer the second half of their careers.
We don’t need specific qualifications - if you’ve graduated from the school of life, you’ve already got all the skills you need to get started. We’ve organised exclusive placements and ringfenced 20 WPP roles for Visible Start participants. This is the most powerful time in our lives. And we intend to make the most of it.
Visible Starts now. Be part of the revolution.

It makes you want to wear a stab vest. But if you do, make sure it's hidden, otherwise if you do get stabbed it will be in your neck, or in your thigh to get the femoral artery.
I was reading some comments on drill social media about the incident the other day and people were pissed off at a 'civilian' getting stabbed - the bloke on the bike that is. I've seen similar comments like that in the past and it backups what you say. Of course no doubt plenty of people who would prefer to remain as civilians are drawn in because of their age and who they're friends with, go to school with etc.
It's fucking tragic that these people feel that they're at war.

Any clues as to the motive?

I think it is mainly advertising based. Although some of their sponsors are more brand/tech/content focussed. Free training with a focus on under represented groups is their mission, which is badly needed in creative industries. I know a couple of people who’ve got full time jobs after doing their courses. Good reputation in the industry.

I realise I'm not a target. But if I saw someone being threatened with a knife I would intervene.

The rapper who was making a video on the 21st has tweeted about the stabbing:

"Red Guard"(NLYL)
Interesting.
I wouldn't have invited them if I thought it would put anyone at risk he says.
So he did a risk assessment then. Unfortunately it seems he got that wrong.
Unfortunate things do happen - eg a fatal accident on the set of Noel Edmonds BBC show. Edmonds suffered a temporary setback in his career, but in the free-wheeling world of Youtube production Reefy is no doubt free to carry on without further consequences or supervision.
The programme is remembered for several accidents during its regular "Give it a Whirl" stunt slot; in particular the death of Michael Lush. The show was cancelled by the BBC on 15 November 1986, following the death of Lush two days earlier. While rehearsing a bungee jump to be performed live on the show, Michael Lush plunged 120 feet (37 m) to his death when his rope came loose. Edmonds resigned from the BBC immediately afterwards............ from Noel Edmonds Wikipedia entry

So he is saying how sorry the the guy got murdered on his film shoot. But unfortunately he didn't see anything. As the driver of his Lamborghini sped off.
I do smell this twitter post was carefully written to make sure the rapper comes across as not knowing anything.

On Monday 26 July 2021, the Metropolitan Police reported that Mannat Kaur Mann had been found safe and well.
Reefy also retreated this:
It is possible he really does not know anything, and this tweet on the matter is him being honest. Since we don't know either way, why assume otherwise? He is no doubt experiencing a fair bit of pressure from the police, which on top of what happened could feel very stressful. This may be a tragedy he had nothing to do with nor knows anything about. I feel for him.

What happened to Michael Lush was predictable and the responsibility of the programme makers to a degree that what happened to Shane Jerome was not. You expect a bungee jump to be tied properly and not come loose. You don't expect men in balaclavas to turn up and stab someone for no apparent reason.
Unless someone here actual evidence to show otherwise?
Anyway, here is the crowdfunder in memory of the victim, Shane Jerome:
In Loving Memory Of Our Beloved Shane Jerome., organised by Zac Spicknell
And here's a report of his death which includes police contact details for anyone who witnessed any of it/has any information:
