As a Londoner - i know it is the most multinational city on planet earth - you walk over a bridge and you will have 50 different nationalities walk over it. Many obviously against IS.
So you attack london it ratifies (due to so many different nationalities) around the world more than any other - You attack a french city - even paris its not the same.(even though it is vey multinational) You well take out more French only - In london you take out more nationalities than brits - but you also attack Britain - so its more exposure)
So Khan needs to fcking do something about it. And its coming from his ideology.
Ok this is not good for me as i need to drive in and out of london all the time. and over bridges. But we need some kind of reinforcement up from the bridge roads so cars/vans can not get to pavements - this is just a starting point.
We are also on national alert we have 100'000's of soldiers - so just pin point them all over London.
Brexit or no Brexit - this will not change - London will not just stop functioning - It needs serious measures , from getting on with only pedestrian areas. to barriers , to better loading policies, more support on registered vehicles working in the city , more restrictions on non - more policing - to promote mre soldiers- IF Khan isn't up to it - he needs o be impeached. He needs to start coming up with transport measures that aid anti terror. But this can not cost us small business that have to go about our every day stuff - it needs to come out of a national budget.
The fact France got hit so much before was due to them not un-foiling terror plots as well. London will always be the more fashionable isis Target and London sadly needs to do more than any other capital in the world.

Gang crime is out of control too, especially knife crime.
Need more police.

If you are saying his religion is preventing him from putting up some railings in London, I think that might be a bit of a stretch.
There are a few practical considerations, as well as aesthetics and also I'm not 100% sure if the Mayor's remit covers this. I can imagine there are probably discussions taking place now on the matter, how best to handle it, and there might be some reluctance from some to change some of London's most famous landmarks, at least not overnight, because it might look like a victory for the terrorists. But it is probably something that will take place eventually in some shape or form.
Also, onto Carl's point about policing, yes, when you consider a lot of these guys were known to intelligence, the problem is also a lack of resources. This maybe could have been prevented with more resources. I'd rather err to the side of more police than put our human rights into a bonfire.

secondly i mentioned more police in the op - on a another thought we havr=e to many soldiers - so its a very obvious solution..
retrain soldiers in to london police.
and what ever is stopping projects to not help terrorsts for pedestrian areas in London needs to stop...this does not affect human rights - it only aids human life. you talking about doing more with weak Intel however is invasive of human rights.
