Worrying, but better to be safe than sorry. They can't take any risks at the present time.

I guess they've had threats, or picked up intelligence which is making them evacuate.  Sounds like they are getting people out ok so should be no problems hopefully.

Sounds as if it was simply a precautionary measure, obviously the police are being very vigiliant.

I have a feeling it was probably some sick cunt phoning in a bomb threat.

Princes Street in Edinburgh was closed off on thursday afternoon as a 'suspect package' was found on a bus.

Scary times in this country at the moment!  :|
