:00:53. > :00:59.overnight raids in Birmingham and London. The police investigation
:01:00. > :01:04.continues. The third victim of the attack has been named today as Curt

:01:11. > :01:17.anniversary. Spanish teacher Ayesha Braid and PC Keith Palmer were also
:01:18. > :01:21.killed in the attack. MPs and police have been holding a minute's
:01:22. > :01:29.silence. The Prime Minister said Britain would not be cowed. We are
:01:30. > :01:37.not afraid. Our resolve will never waver in the face of terrorism. And
:01:38. > :01:41.thousands of people are gathering in Trafalgar Square this evening for a
:01:42. > :02:05.vigil for those affected by the terror attack.
:02:06. > :02:13.Good evening from Westminster Bridge. You can see people walking
:02:14. > :02:17.around just a day after the deadly attack that left people dead and
:02:18. > :02:23.injured on this bridge. 52-year-old Khaled Masood has been named by the
:02:24. > :02:27.police as the attacker who drove his hired vehicle along the bridge,
:02:28. > :02:31.ploughing into pedestrians and members of the public and tourists,
:02:32. > :02:36.people from 12 different nationalities, then smashing his car
:02:37. > :02:38.into the railings of the Palace of Westminster, attacking a police
:02:39. > :02:45.officer there with a knife, stabbing him to death. PC Keith Palmer.
:02:46. > :02:51.Before the attacker was shot dead. In Trafalgar Square, there is a
:02:52. > :02:57.vigil. In memory of those who have lost their lives and with people,
:02:58. > :03:00.and thousands of people coming to pay their respects to those who have
:03:01. > :03:06.died and those who have been injured as well and all those affected and
:03:07. > :03:12.traumatised by the attack yesterday, the most deadly terror attack on
:03:13. > :03:19.British soil since the 7-7 bombings of 2005. You can see their,
:03:20. > :03:29.dignitaries on the steps of the National Gallery and many people who
:03:30. > :03:34.are arriving now for this vigil. The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, had
:03:35. > :03:37.asked people to come here not only to pay their respects to the dead
:03:38. > :03:49.and remember those who are injured as well, but also a gesture of
:03:50. > :03:58.defiance. The Prime Minister earlier on in the Commons telling MPs, we
:03:59. > :04:01.are not afraid, we will not be covered by terror, our resolve will
:04:02. > :04:08.never waver in the face of terrorism. That has been the message
:04:09. > :04:12.from politicians, the police, members of the public who have been
:04:13. > :04:16.coming back onto the streets of Westminster, Westminster Bridge
:04:17. > :04:20.where we are, and in Trafalgar Square in force, showing that life
:04:21. > :04:25.goes on as normal and that terrorism will not succeed. The reason they
:04:26. > :04:33.called it an attack on free people everywhere. She also said that
:04:34. > :04:39.yesterday we saw the worst of humanity, but we will remember the
:04:40. > :04:44.best. She was talking particularly about PC Keith Palmer, the
:04:45. > :04:48.48-year-old police officer who had 15 years of service in the
:04:49. > :04:54.Metropolitan Police, who died of stab wounds, gardening and
:04:55. > :04:58.protecting the Palace of Westminster and he is one of those who lost
:04:59. > :05:06.their lives being remembered with this candlelit vigil this evening.
:05:07. > :05:13.This vigil in Trafalgar Square. Ayeeshia free had also died
:05:14. > :05:25.yesterday, a Spanish teacher. A mother and wife. Curt Cochran, an
:05:26. > :05:35.American citizen from Utah also lost his life. His wife is still in
:05:36. > :05:40.hospital being treated for her injuries. Let's bring in our
:05:41. > :05:47.Political Correspondent, Carell Walker. We will speak to her in a
:05:48. > :06:00.moment. Let's listen in to the vigil in Trafalgar Square. Yesterday's
:06:01. > :06:11.defence was really terrible. Three people were taken from us.
:06:12. > :06:25.Our thoughts are with their families and friends. Many more were gravely
:06:26. > :06:32.injured and all of us have been deeply affected by what has
:06:33. > :06:42.happened. This cannot be undone, much as we wish it. However, we do
:06:43. > :06:48.get to choose our reaction and gathering here tonight shows exactly
:06:49. > :06:59.how we must move forward. We must stand together. People have tried to
:07:00. > :07:04.tear this city apart with acts of terror many times before. They have
:07:05. > :07:22.never succeeded and they never will. Our emergency services came together
:07:23. > :07:29.yesterday to help those affected by this cowardly act. This city and
:07:30. > :07:37.indeed this country will do the same. We will act as one and embrace
:07:38. > :07:42.our differences. In doing so, we will clearly demonstrate the
:07:43. > :07:43.futility of hatred and the overwhelming power of friendship.
:07:44. > :08:05.Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, the Home
:08:06. > :08:22.Secretary, the Right Honourable Amber Rudd MP.
:08:23. > :08:31.I would like to start by saying thank you and paying tribute to the
:08:32. > :08:43.officer who lost his life, Keith Palmer. I know we will all be
:08:44. > :08:48.thinking about his friends and his family. He was courageous, he was
:08:49. > :08:57.brave and he was also doing his duty. He is not alone in doing that.
:08:58. > :09:04.I know that all officers of the net are like that. In my experience, so
:09:05. > :09:10.far of policemen. I want us to say thank you to them all for their
:09:11. > :09:24.great sacrifice and risks that they keep us safe. They and the emergency
:09:25. > :09:28.services. Yesterday we also saw a member of Parliament leaping in,
:09:29. > :09:34.trying to help this police officer. It reminded us of how we are all so
:09:35. > :09:40.connected, particularly when the random victims on the bridge of
:09:41. > :09:44.different nationalities, tourists going about their business, were
:09:45. > :09:51.also mowed down in a terrible way. They will not win. We are all
:09:52. > :09:59.connected and today we showed that by coming together, they going to
:10:00. > :10:05.work, by about our normal business, because the terrorists will not
:10:06. > :10:09.defeat us. We will defeat them. We are strong in our values and proud
:10:10. > :10:23.of our country. Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, the Mayor of
:10:24. > :10:49.London, Sadiq Khan. We come together as Londoners
:10:50. > :10:55.tonight, to remember those who have lost their lives and all those
:10:56. > :11:06.affected by the horrific attack yesterday. Also, to send a clear
:11:07. > :11:18.message, Londoners will never be cowed by terrorism.
:11:19. > :11:31.Those evil and twisted individuals who tried to destroy our shared way
:11:32. > :11:43.of life will never succeed and we condemn them. Our hearts are with
:11:44. > :11:51.the family and friends of PC Keith,, Aysha Frade, Kurt Cochran and all
:11:52. > :12:04.those injured in the attack yesterday. The victims were people
:12:05. > :12:17.who came from all corners of our world. This is a time to express our
:12:18. > :12:32.gratitude to the heroism of our police officers and emergency
:12:33. > :12:44.services who ran towards danger to help and at the same time they
:12:45. > :12:55.encourage others to run for safety. London is a great city. Full of
:12:56. > :13:03.amazing people from all backgrounds. When Londoners face adversity, he
:13:04. > :13:13.always pull together. We stand up for our values and be sure the world
:13:14. > :13:24.we are the greatest city in the world.
:13:25. > :13:38.Our response to this attack on our city, to this attack on our way of
:13:39. > :13:42.life, to this attack on our shared values shows the world what it means
:13:43. > :14:03.to be a Londoner. Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, there will now
:14:04. > :17:35.be a minute's silence. That concludes our ceremony today.
:17:36. > :17:40.Thank you for joining us here on Trafalgar Square. You are welcome to
:17:41. > :17:42.remain on the square to contemplate and commemorate. Thank you very
:17:43. > :18:04.much. Poignant scenes there in Trafalgar
:18:05. > :18:11.Square as people came to remember those who have died and you can see
:18:12. > :18:22.three candles lit in memory of the three victims of the terror attack
:18:23. > :18:27.yesterday. The Spanish teacher, an American tourist celebrating his
:18:28. > :18:30.silver wedding anniversary with his wife and a police officer guarding
:18:31. > :18:38.the Palace of Westminster, PC Keith Palmer. Carol Walker, our Political
:18:39. > :18:44.Correspondent was watching and listening to that and, Carol, the
:18:45. > :18:51.Home Secretary, Amber Rudd, the Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, with
:18:52. > :18:57.equally defiant messages saying that terrorism will not win. Amber Rudd
:18:58. > :19:02.said terrorism will not win, we will defeat terrorism. Real defiance
:19:03. > :19:08.there as well as poignancy and dignity in that vigil at Trafalgar
:19:09. > :19:13.Square. Yes indeed. The vigil, those words reflecting the mood and the
:19:14. > :19:19.sentiment we have had expressed throughout the day really at
:19:20. > :19:24.Westminster. Trafalgar Square just the other end of Whitehall from
:19:25. > :19:30.where the attack took place. You can see many people still gathering
:19:31. > :19:36.there the three candles burning in memory of the three who died in the
:19:37. > :19:44.attack. Amber Rudd, the Home Secretary, saying there that are
:19:45. > :19:49.thoughts, of course, were with the family in particular of Keith
:19:50. > :19:54.Palmer, the policeman, who was stabbed and died in that attack. She
:19:55. > :20:02.described him as courageous, brave, doing his duty and she expressed her
:20:03. > :20:06.thanks to all the police and others in the emergency services for the
:20:07. > :20:12.risks they take to keep others save. Terrorism will not defeat us, she
:20:13. > :20:19.said, we will defeat them. Strong in our values, she said. We are proud
:20:20. > :20:27.of our country. We heard also from Sadiq Khan, a game, echoing that
:20:28. > :20:31.mood of quiet defiance after the attack on democracy, the evil
:20:32. > :20:39.twisted individuals who described them as who would seek to take away
:20:40. > :20:46.and disrupt our way of life. Talking about how the victims were people
:20:47. > :20:49.who had come from all corners of the world and expressed his thanks for
:20:50. > :20:56.the emergency services who ran towards danger. Londoners, he said,
:20:57. > :21:00.in the face of adversity, pulled together to stand up for our values
:21:01. > :21:08.and show the world what a great city Londoners. You can see they are
:21:09. > :21:10.having some troubles getting the candles light on the street when
:21:11. > :21:16.they are burning right now and others are adding their own tributes
:21:17. > :21:23.to those who were killed in that attack. I think a chance for many
:21:24. > :21:33.ordinary Londoners, ordinary visitors to the city to show their
:21:34. > :21:39.tributes and express their grief, there concerns and pass on their
:21:40. > :21:46.condolences to those who died and share their thoughts are with those
:21:47. > :21:53.who were injured in the attack. People lighting candles from those
:21:54. > :21:56.three large candles in memory of the three who lost their lives and a
:21:57. > :22:00.huge number of people there in Trafalgar Square, really a show of
:22:01. > :22:08.defiance, echoing the defiance we saw from MPs when they debated this
:22:09. > :22:12.morning in the chamber of the House of Commons, just a day after the
:22:13. > :22:16.attack, on the Palace of Westminster. People coming out onto
:22:17. > :22:20.the streets, showing that they will not be cowed and it reminds me
:22:21. > :22:23.slightly of Paris after the terror attacks there and people very much
:22:24. > :22:31.wanted to come out onto the streets and should defiance. Yes, indeed.
:22:32. > :22:39.Any people in London had, of course, none of the risk of a terrorist
:22:40. > :22:44.attack in the heart of London. This one on the heart of democracy has
:22:45. > :22:51.really touched people. We heard politicians from all parties
:22:52. > :22:57.expressing solidarity, their determination to stand up for their
:22:58. > :23:05.values, determination to carry on with their daily work. Many people
:23:06. > :23:10.out and about in London. Of course, some will have been concerned and
:23:11. > :23:15.there was heightened security, extra police in many stations and so on.
:23:16. > :23:20.Those tributes and the mood of resolve led by the Prime Minister he
:23:21. > :23:25.made that statement in Parliament this morning. We saw the minute's
:23:26. > :23:31.silence this morning, another one there in Trafalgar Square as people
:23:32. > :23:38.remembered the dead. The reason they saying, in her speech, that this
:23:39. > :23:43.attempt to silence democracy would not succeed. The Prime Minister has
:23:44. > :23:48.written in the book of condolence in Westminster Hall. There were people
:23:49. > :23:54.in a small queue when I was there a little earlier this afternoon
:23:55. > :23:59.waiting to write their own tributes. The Prime Minister, in her message
:24:00. > :24:03.in the book of condolence, echoing the sentiment she expressed in
:24:04. > :24:12.Parliament saying that the attempt to silence our democracy failed and
:24:13. > :24:19.that one people send their condolences to family and friends of
:24:20. > :24:23.who died, also saying that Westminster was the heart of our
:24:24. > :24:33.democracy, a symbol of our tradition and values and our values will
:24:34. > :24:38.prevail. I think that was the note of defiance and determination which
:24:39. > :24:42.was echoed in different ways by different politicians across
:24:43. > :24:48.different parties and I think it is the same mood we are seeing there in
:24:49. > :24:55.Trafalgar Square tonight at the individual as people stand there
:24:56. > :24:58.with the candles lit for the victims of that attack, showing their
:24:59. > :25:06.determination to stand together in the wake of the terrorist attack and
:25:07. > :25:12.to continue with their lives. Thank you very much indeed. Carol Walker,
:25:13. > :25:16.our Political Correspondent watching the very moving candlelit vigil in
:25:17. > :25:21.Trafalgar Square where carried from the Home Secretary and the Mayor of
:25:22. > :25:30.London. I want to bring in former Metropolitan Police Chief
:25:31. > :25:34.Superintendent 2 Here to discuss more on London
:25:35. > :25:42.he's a former Chief Superintendent with the Metropolitan Police.
:25:43. > :25:48.the death of PC, will affect every single police officer, every member
:25:49. > :25:53.of staff and the police family widely. Police officers do not go to
:25:54. > :25:58.work thinking they will not go back home, so it is a tragic thing. PC
:25:59. > :26:02.Palmer was an incredibly brave individual, he ran towards this
:26:03. > :26:08.individual. This is the most heavily policed area in the. We have new
:26:09. > :26:12.Scotland Yard, portcullis house with the MPs are, the House of Commons
:26:13. > :26:15.and the House of Lords. A couple of hundred metres weight you have
:26:16. > :26:19.Downing Street. There are a huge number of police officers here. The
:26:20. > :26:24.individual who carried out this attack, it was a bizarre act of
:26:25. > :26:32.madness, because he could never get away. Taking those innocent lives
:26:33. > :26:36.was shopping. PC Palmer, as a long serving face officer who guarded the
:26:37. > :26:42.Palace of Westminster, was known to MPs. He was part of the Westminster
:26:43. > :26:47.family, the Westminster village. I used to run a team here many years
:26:48. > :26:51.ago and he got to know all the MPs. The MPs, that is the entry point,
:26:52. > :26:57.they have it minute to get to the voting chambers cut so you would see
:26:58. > :27:02.them rushing in and out in taxes. The need to get in and out quickly
:27:03. > :27:06.to vote. One of the skills of people like Kasey Palmer would be to
:27:07. > :27:10.recognise all the different MPs and be able to allow those in very
:27:11. > :27:16.quickly. I think carriage Gates has always been the place where, it is a
:27:17. > :27:20.unique part of British democracy, because the public will be walking
:27:21. > :27:25.by and you will have MPs gone in and out. Cheek by jowl, chatting to
:27:26. > :27:30.individuals. The loss is a tragic one and my sympathies and
:27:31. > :27:34.condolences to his family. He has been remembered with that candlelit
:27:35. > :27:38.vigil where the candles were lit in his memory and the other two victims
:27:39. > :27:44.of the attack yesterday. That attack, which appears to have been
:27:45. > :27:48.carried out by a lone wolf, somebody who was on the radar of the police
:27:49. > :27:52.and security forces, but as the Prime Minister said, a peripheral
:27:53. > :27:56.figure. That is the nightmare for security services, somebody, they
:27:57. > :28:02.cannot get inside the mind of everybody. There will be individuals
:28:03. > :28:06.who deteriorate. We have to look at mental health, what motivates these
:28:07. > :28:09.individuals and they could quickly go from having concerns about
:28:10. > :28:14.international politics to suddenly doing something as wicked as this. I
:28:15. > :28:19.think we have to support our police service, we have the support or
:28:20. > :28:25.security services, but what we also need to do is look at the government
:28:26. > :28:28.prevent strategy. We need an independent review. There are good
:28:29. > :28:32.things about it but we need to nature and get the best out of it in
:28:33. > :28:37.order to deal with those individuals who pose a danger to our community.
:28:38. > :28:46.And today with radicalisation, is that what you are saying? It is not
:28:47. > :28:50.like the IRA. 40 years ago, London was bombed. The IRA planted a bomb
:28:51. > :28:56.inside the cafeteria at the House of Commons. Those days are gone.
:28:57. > :29:00.Individuals get radicalised online. We need to ask Twitter, Facebook,
:29:01. > :29:04.Google what they are doing to share information about extremists quickly
:29:05. > :29:08.with security services. Recently we have had some big companies pulling
:29:09. > :29:13.out because they are concerned about adverts appearing on extremist
:29:14. > :29:18.websites. There is a lot for those organisations today. We have also
:29:19. > :29:23.seen so-called Islamic State retreating quite significantly. They
:29:24. > :29:28.are now in two key places in racket in Syria and Mosul in Iraq and even
:29:29. > :29:32.there they are retreating. They are sending out messages on the
:29:33. > :29:35.committee telling people to attack. We need to know where those messages
:29:36. > :29:45.are coming from and deal with those individuals. Thank you so much.
:29:46. > :29:48.Let's get the very latest on the police investigation. Home Affairs
:29:49. > :29:55.Correspondent, Daniel Sandford, jointly from new Scotland Yard. What
:29:56. > :30:00.is the latest? We can tell you there are five addresses still being
:30:01. > :30:05.searched by police. One in Wales, three in Birmingham and one in East
:30:06. > :30:11.London. That east London address, I understand, is worth 39-year-old
:30:12. > :30:23.woman arrested overnight and she, I think, is the partner
:30:24. > :30:29.All seven of the other arrests made overnight and one of them this
:30:30. > :30:34.morning took place in Birmingham. Birmingham is a strong focus of this
:30:35. > :30:39.investigation were the hire car is believed to have been hired from
:30:40. > :30:44.that was driven across the bridge. It is where the suspect, Khalid
:30:45. > :30:50.Masood, is believed to have been living in recent years, although he
:30:51. > :30:55.was born in Kent, British born and bred. The latest update on injuries,
:30:56. > :31:01.the police say five people remain in a critical condition, two of them
:31:02. > :31:05.with wife threatening injuries. Daniel, just stay with us. We're
:31:06. > :31:11.just looking at pictures from Trafalgar Square, --
:31:12. > :31:16.life-threatening injuries. We had that poignant vigil for the three
:31:17. > :31:21.people killed by the attacker, Khalid Masood, yesterday. And others
:31:22. > :31:27.injured in that attack who are still in hospital, still critically
:31:28. > :31:35.injured. And defiant messages from the Home Secretary and the Mayor of
:31:36. > :31:37.London at that vigil. Khalid Masood, the Prime Minister was saying
:31:38. > :31:42.earlier on in the Commons that he had been a peripheral figure,
:31:43. > :31:47.although he had been on the radar of MI5, he was not part of any current
:31:48. > :31:52.intelligence picture. And that is a real problem for the intelligence
:31:53. > :31:55.services, when it isn't a wider conspiracy, it is apparently one man
:31:56. > :32:03.acting like this, with such deadly consequences. His background is
:32:04. > :32:07.interesting. First of all, he is 52, which is quite unusually old for
:32:08. > :32:12.people involved in an attack like this. He certainly has a violent
:32:13. > :32:16.criminal history. His most recent conviction was in 2003 when he was
:32:17. > :32:20.convicted of possessing a knife. In more recent years he has not had
:32:21. > :32:24.criminal convictions. Although he appeared on the edge of this
:32:25. > :32:28.investigation into violent extremism, he did not become a major
:32:29. > :32:32.suspect the investigation and slowly drifted off the radar of the
:32:33. > :32:36.intelligence services and police, and was not part of any current
:32:37. > :32:40.investigation, and that gives the police a problem. There are some
:32:41. > :32:44.people that they are very worried about, typically 2000-3000 at anyone
:32:45. > :32:48.time that have to be kept under watch of some sort that any one
:32:49. > :32:53.time, and those people are just off that watch list are the ones you
:32:54. > :32:57.find it easier to hire a car and dry through a crowd of tourists in
:32:58. > :32:59.Central London and then launch a knife attack on the Houses of
:33:00. > :33:07.Parliament. That is always the problem. People can radicalise quite
:33:08. > :33:11.quickly, or the circumstances of their life can change quickly, and
:33:12. > :33:16.they can suddenly decide to carry out some kind of specific, violent
:33:17. > :33:21.act. Don't forget, the police still regard this as being and is not --
:33:22. > :33:26.Islamist inspired attack and it is worth saying that a Twitter account
:33:27. > :33:30.linked to so-called Islamic State has said that they were responsible
:33:31. > :33:34.for this attack, although for the police, I don't think that is a
:33:35. > :33:39.central part of the investigation. What they want to know our who are
:33:40. > :33:42.the associates of Khalid Masood and didn't any of them know what was
:33:43. > :33:47.happening or, even worse, help him carry out this terrible carnage
:33:48. > :33:53.right at the seat of Britain's democracy. And B3, interesting that
:33:54. > :34:00.the Prime Minister said when she was talking to MPs, that the current
:34:01. > :34:07.threat level is critical, rather than severe, the highest level, so
:34:08. > :34:15.suggesting, really, that this event yesterday was a one-off. Yes, these
:34:16. > :34:19.things are always to do with assessments. The assessment, even in
:34:20. > :34:24.the immediate aftermath of the attack yesterday was that appeared
:34:25. > :34:30.to be a one-off. At no point did we see the threat level publicly go up
:34:31. > :34:34.above severe. That still means that an attempted attack is believed to
:34:35. > :34:37.be highly likely, but it doesn't mean that an attack is believed to
:34:38. > :34:41.be imminent which is what the critical threat level means. It
:34:42. > :34:48.means that for now they think that this was a one-off. One other thing
:34:49. > :34:53.worth saying is that, whenever a police officer shoot somebody there
:34:54. > :34:57.has to be an investigation by the IPCC, and the Metropolitan Police
:34:58. > :35:03.and the IPCC have said that such an investigation has begun, and the
:35:04. > :35:07.investigation into the circumstances of the incident, but at this point,
:35:08. > :35:11.no police officer is under suspicion, which gives you an idea
:35:12. > :35:19.of the approach that the IPCC will be taking to this investigation.
:35:20. > :35:23.Many thanks, Daniel Sandford, home affairs correspondent, with the
:35:24. > :35:26.latest on the police investigation. Let's join our colleague Christian
:35:27. > :35:31.Fraser who is down the road across Parliament Square from me at
:35:32. > :35:38.Westminster. Yes, we have just been walking around this evening trying
:35:39. > :35:42.to get a feel for the cordon at the moment. Quite a big police presence
:35:43. > :35:47.outside Westminster Abbey. We're at the other side of the bridge. You
:35:48. > :35:53.can see the carriage Gateway PC Keith Palmer was killed, and around
:35:54. > :35:57.that area a forensic team have been walking up and down making sure that
:35:58. > :36:02.they have not missed anything. The objective is to get this busy area
:36:03. > :36:05.of Central London open again as quickly as possible. Some of that
:36:06. > :36:09.work will go on through the evening as they try to tie up anything that
:36:10. > :36:13.they might have missed in the in course of the complex investigation.
:36:14. > :36:18.As Daniel was saying, from tomorrow you would expect the investigation
:36:19. > :36:21.to move away from here, very much into the background and
:36:22. > :36:27.relationships of Khalid Masood. What is also very visible, it's my first
:36:28. > :36:32.time down here today, just how many people are around going about their
:36:33. > :36:36.business. We have heard from the acting Met Police Commissioner who
:36:37. > :36:40.has said that what has happened cannot be on done, but what is
:36:41. > :36:43.important is the response. People have been coming down to lay flowers
:36:44. > :36:49.just where we are broadcasting, many of them just coming out of their
:36:50. > :36:53.offices in fairly determined spirit. When I came into work this morning
:36:54. > :36:58.on the train, the same people I see every morning, getting on with it,
:36:59. > :37:06.as London tends to do, and making sure that we were not cowed in any
:37:07. > :37:09.way by what happened yesterday. It is quite interesting, Christian,
:37:10. > :37:16.that where we are, Westminster Bridge, which is the focal point of
:37:17. > :37:20.what Khalid Masood did yesterday, killing and injuring so many people,
:37:21. > :37:26.but this is now open again, whereas other roads around Westminster are
:37:27. > :37:33.still closed including Milbank and other major roads around Parliament
:37:34. > :37:39.Square. One of the other interesting things, some who works in one of the
:37:40. > :37:42.ministries here was talking about it yesterday, what was particularly
:37:43. > :37:46.impressive about the security services' response is how they kept
:37:47. > :37:49.some of these narrow roads open and closed off the area around
:37:50. > :37:53.Westminster quickly, but what they did not want was traffic backing up
:37:54. > :37:58.in this area. This has obviously been rehearsed in the past. What you
:37:59. > :38:01.don't want is people getting eye rake and stressed by traffic jams in
:38:02. > :38:09.an area that is potentially under attack. -- people getting irate.
:38:10. > :38:13.They have worked out which roads to keep open and wish to keep clear to
:38:14. > :38:17.get traffic out of the area. It is obviously being done quite
:38:18. > :38:20.skilfully. That in itself is reassuring, it is a sign from the
:38:21. > :38:24.police who have been very visible around Westminster today, the
:38:25. > :38:28.professional way that they have dealt with this. They have practised
:38:29. > :38:33.it many times. They were trained for it, even at the weekend. They don't
:38:34. > :38:37.want to put it into practice but when they did have two, it seemed to
:38:38. > :38:45.go very smoothly aside from the very sad death of PC Keith Palmer.
:38:46. > :38:52.Christian, many thanks. Christian Fraser, there for us. That visual we
:38:53. > :38:56.are seeing at Trafalgar Square included minutes' silence for the
:38:57. > :39:06.three people who died at the hands of Khalid Masood -- that vigil.
:39:07. > :39:14.Aysha Frade, Kurt Cochran, an American citizen and a police
:39:15. > :39:19.officer, PC Keith Palmer. Sadiq Khan, the Mayor of London that the
:39:20. > :39:24.fight message at that vigil in Trafalgar Square, saying that
:39:25. > :39:30.Londoners will never be cowed by terrorism -- with a defiant message.
:39:31. > :39:35.Amber Rudd, the Home Secretary, also with an equally defiant message.
:39:36. > :39:43.Terrorists, she said, will not defeat us. We will defeat them. And
:39:44. > :39:47.we saw defiance from MPs in the chamber of the House of Commons
:39:48. > :39:52.today. Simply by having a debate on what happened yesterday, by getting
:39:53. > :39:59.back to work, that was a message of defiance. And the people who came
:40:00. > :40:05.out on streets around Westminster and to attend that Trafalgar Square
:40:06. > :40:22.vigil showed that they will not be cowed by terror. You are watching
:40:23. > :40:24.Thanks to Ben Brown down in Westminster. We will
