Voter anger mounts over Downing Street parties
BBC NewsMAY 2022
Even though the crash at Downing Street didn't result in any injuries or fatalities, it served as a reminder as to why London’s buildings must be armed with the highest security. It doesn’t appear that the suspect had any intentions of terrorism, but police did the right thing by treating the incident with the utmost concern.
It seems that the whole pomp and circumstance surrounding the “crash” at Downing Street is a bit of an exaggeration. While police sent bomb-sniffing dogs and initially treated the suspect like he was a terrorist, most media casually omitted that the car was driving roughly 2 miles per hour when it hit Downing Street’s gates. Security is an important issue, but this incident isn’t a reason to be up in arms.
