London Bridge: Attacker convicted of terror offence
As details emerge about the suspected attacker, the more this looks like it was a targeted incident rather than the random attack on members of the public seen two years earlier at London Bridge.
Earlier, Neil Basu, head of UK counter-terrorism policing, said the suspect was wearing what is believed to be a hoax explosive device. Police have said cordons will remain in place and extra police patrols will be held across the capital. Mr Johnson added that the emergency services and members of the public who intervened"represent the very best of our country".
