Queen sends sympathy message
Queen Elizabeth II today spoke of her shock at this morning's terrorist attacks in London.
In an open message, she said: "The dreadful events in London this morning have deeply shocked us all.
“I know I speak for the whole nation in expressing my sympathy to all those affected and the relatives of the killed and injured.
“I have nothing but admiration for the emergency services as they go about their work.”
The Queen is currently at Windsor after travelling from the Gleneagles G8 summit where she last night hosted a dinner for political leaders.
Buckingham Palace has been sealed off in the wake of the terrorist blasts with armed police and army personnel on guard.
