Finally, a map of the exclusion zone has been made available to the public (here ’tis). One week after a major terrorist event and two weeks before the new law comes into force.
More later. Have a dig through this if you’re in the mood.
(Note – If this graphic was ‘available’ to the public before this week, the Home Office certainly didn’t make much noise about it. And remained strangely silent when asked about it.)

This is the first I've heard of this, and it makes me very angry. Blair says that the terrorists will not stop "our way of life" or our "freedoms". Well, it would appear that our "freedoms" and "way of life" now include being banned from demonstrating or protesting peacefully up to a kilometre from the Houses of Parliament.We've now got a so-called Labour government doing things (introducing ID cards, banning protests and demonstrations etc) that the Tories didn't even consider doing.
