Quote: "Today is an important moment for us all to remember the appalling attacks on London 10 years ago.
"It is a day for us to remember those who lost their lives, those who were injured in the bombings and those who felt scared in the city they live in.
"But it is also a time to recognise the strength, solidarity and resilience of London and the people who live here - including those working for the emergency services who were at the scene.
"On the day of the attacks, we saw acts of immense bravery, with people risking their own lives to save others. And as commuters made their way home without public transport, they shared food, water and helped each other along the way.
"And today Londoners will once again show their solidarity and remember those who died in these attacks as they Walk Together to work. We face new and changing threats, but London will continue to stand shoulder to shoulder against terrorists who seek to divide us with extremism and violence." |
