Thousands of US military personnel based in the UK have been banned by commanders from travelling to London in the wake of Thursday's bomb attacks.

Personnel, most of them from US Air Force units at RAF Mildenhall and RAF Lakenheath, in Suffolk, have been told not to go within the M25 motorway.

Family members who are from the US are also being urged to stay away.

Hmmm, if it's so dangerous why was the Queen able to drive slowly through London at the weekend in an opentop car?


In this difficult hour, the people of Great Britain can know the American people stand with you -
US president George W Bush
Just not too close eh George?

GWB needed an armoured escored to get from the airport to the palace last week. He wanted the roads closed too but the Met told him to piss off.
