Terrorist shooting in Westminster, London. Parliament locked down

It appears that a car mowed some people down on Westminster bridge, and then ran into railings/a wall. A man then entered the grounds of Westminster, when challenged a police officer was stabbed, followed by a man being shot (by police). There is an air ambulance on site and multiple security forces. Westminster is in lockdown and the whole area is closed off.

Latest is 5 dead,including one police officer and the terrorist.....over 40 injured....one lady knocked into the River Thames by the vehicle pulled out alive but seriously injured....RIP to the innocent victims.

The police officer killed in a terror attack at Westminster has been named by the Met Police as PC Keith Palmer.
The 48-year-old husband and father was among five people who died, including the attacker, near the Houses of Parliament.
The attacker, whose identity police believe they know, stabbed the unarmed officer before being shot dead.
Forty other people were injured after a car struck pedestrians on nearby Westminster Bridge, before it crashed.
Acting Deputy Commissioner and head of counter terrorism at the Metropolitan Police, Mark Rowley, said they were working on the assumption the attacker was "inspired by international terrorism".
PC Palmer was a member of the Met's parliamentary and diplomatic protection command and had 15 years service.
'Never give in'
Mr Rowley paid tribute to PC Palmer, saying: "He was someone who left for work today expecting to return home at the end of his shift - and he had every right to expect that would happen."
He said the parliamentary protection team are a combination of armed and unarmed officers and "sadly the officer who lost his life today was unarmed".
Mr Rowley added: "He was supported by armed colleagues who shot and killed the attacker."
The acting deputy commissioner said specially-trained family liaison officers were supporting the families of the three members of the public who lost their lives.
Three police officers were among those injured, two of whom were in a serious condition, he added.

Because we've become conditioned, we daren't mention Islam or Immigrants for fear of being branded a racist, in fact that's the first thing the imams scream if anyone mentions the religion of peace after a terrorist attack. So now, what we do is we all put up bo**ocks on Facebook, say prayers, light candles and we dare not criticise those who justify these attacks by saying it's part of living in a major city, it isn't, and at some point the Englishman will find his balls again and stand up to this horrendous blight. We've fought two world wars together, our cultures are tighter than any European ones, my guess is that at some point we will stand shoulder to shoulder again and all the Libtards will be a part of the past, forgotten as indeed they should be.

Here is the mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, yes he actually has a smile on his face at the start of the interview and then comes out with what must be one of the most dreadful statements of all time. Where was the outrage and his sacking, as I was saying, we've become scared to criticise for fear of being called racists.

Yeah, I saw that video a while back. I agree; it is outrageous. But not really surprising nowadays.

Afraid to speak....It's common all over the world. Even in places where free speech is traditionally embraced. People have been conditioned to keep silent. I'm pleased to say more and more people at home are refusing to comply. But as they do we see outlets such as FB, Twitter, and Youtube censoring people who speak against the NWO agenda.
