Looking at various sources - I reckon death toll will be at least 5 people (including the attacker) by the end of the day.
If it is alone wolf attack - a hire car and knife is all it took to cause such carnage.

This is why I've not been to London for years.
Was actually looking last week at Hotels in London for a weekend break for my G/F's Birthday. Really pleased I didn't book anything, and don't fancy taking the risk now.
Chances are slim, but why take the chance.
Feel sorry for all the innocent victims

It's easy to say that, but faced with two otherwise equally valid options for a short break somewhere, one in the tranquility of a picturesque village, the other in a major city, why would anyone these days pick the latter, unless there was something very specific they wanted to do in the city?

Unbelievable that the guy mows down people on Westminster Bridge, then outside Parliament where he crashes the car - then gets out and stabs to death an armed Policeman?! You'd think after all that carnage an armed Policeman would be the last to get stabbed. Terrible event though.

Situations where you "may be injured or killed" happen 24 hours a day, 7 days a week,365 days a year. You could wake up tomorrow, trip down the stairs and break your neck. You could go to put your toaster on and get an electric shock. Where do you draw the line? You're much more likely to get run over crossing the road than be involved in a terrorist attack. How often do you drive a car? Know what the chances are of being killed behind the wheel? Then again, you could be going along the motorway at 70, have a blow-out, crash and die.........can't go through life with that attitude bro, you'd never do anything!

Agree, you are more likely to die from normal everyday sinarios than a terrorist attack. Running scared is the real aim and to build hate almost certain types as we all know.
How can a 'armed' police man get stabbed is what I want to know and why is the wrong suspect being named?
It all smells fishy to me tbh, as I say above, all these events seem to be a little iffy in the details.
But so wrong to have innocent people die because of whatever's going on here. Rip

Ah, just read comments from here when posted.
Scotland Yard have just said they are not commenting on identity of attacker
He also states they know who it is and there is some proactive journalists and he asks them to stop it lol.

"He added that he recognises Britain’s Muslim communities “will feel vulnerable at this time, given the past actions of right-wing extremists”."

Glad to see the attacker was shot dead, at least we won't be spending any money keeping him in prison for the rest of his life.
Feel very sad for the people caught up in this, I hope it isn't the start of a series of lone nutjobs deciding to do this kind of thing. It would be very hard to stop it happening and the media frenzy would become intolerable.
