PaulTon: Just one point I'll make
You are right Paul, and I constantly remember threats along Oxford St (Marks and Sparks every Saturday getting evacuated) and actual attacks (City of London and Victoria Station I was minutes away).
But people did not cower to such gutless attacks, despite innocent people going along with there daily routine being killed or maimed,
The threat is different now, but it is still an act of terror - and only if we succumb to such acts and alter our lives will they win.
I refuse to be dictated too, and refuse to be intimidated by gutless cowards.
