Police were alerted by an ambulance crew who saw smoke coming from the silver Mercedes, parked near the Tiger Tiger nightclub.
Prime Minister Gordon Brown said Britain faces “a serious and continuous threat”.

Reports say that Picadilly Underground Station remains closed although the Transport For London site doesn’t mention it.

Just the usual sort of thing: CENTRAL LINE: Severe delays are occurring due to a person under a train earlier at Liverpool Street.
