Andy Trotter Quotations

We're not going to stop pedestrian access to London -- London is open for business, ... What we can't have is tens of thousands of demonstrators in Whitehall when Parliament is sitting.

We have a severe fire in one of those carriages, with tremendous devastation in there, ... And we face some considerable challenges as far as identification of the numbers who are in there and the identification of anything that remains in there.

If they didn't perish in the bombs they are still out there somewhere or have left the country.

What we will be firm about is people who are here to make trouble.

It is increasingly clear that there is very little else to recover from the scene,

We will allow and help demonstrators to make their point as we always do in London, ... What we will be firm about is people who are here to make trouble.

There are additional bodies ... ... We think there may well be further fatalities.

We say that London is open for business. If we don't do that, then the terrorists will have won and that's not what we want,

Crime officers...are now combing the site looking for evidence to find out what happened,

Our concern would be if the demonstration turns into riots or damage and we have got to be prepared to deal with that.

It is quite remarkable...if you look at the scene...which is a scene of some great devastation, that so many people managed to escape from such an awful event.

It is unprecedented, but equally these are unprecedented times. These are the biggest threats that London has ever faced in peacetime,

All the police forces of London are all working together to keep London safe.
