London yesterday paused to remember the July 7 attacks on the Tube and bus network as political leaders and police officers warned of an enduring threat from terrorism.
The capital — and country — fell silent to mark the 10th anniversary of the atrocity in which four suicide bombers murdered 52 people and injured hundreds more.
Survivors, relatives of the dead and rescuers from the emergency services joined together in a series of emotional tributes.
At 8.50am — the exact time the first bombers struck — David Cameron led Boris Johnson, senior police officers and politicians to lay wreaths at the 7/7 memorial in Hyde Park.
At Russell Square Tube station —where 26 people died — Gill Hicks, who lost both legs below the knee in the blast, returned to lay flowers.
There were also emotional scenes at Tavistock Square, the scene of the last attack when a bomb ripped through a No 30 double-decker at 9.47am after it had been diverted because of the earlier bombings. The blast killed 13.
Royal Mail worker Shyanuja Parathasangary, 30, — known as Shyanu — was on her way to work in Paddington when she was killed. Yesterday her mother collapsed as she arrived at scene and had to be supported by family.
A card left to “Our Precious Daughter” from “Mum & Dad” said her death had left “two broken hearts”.
At Edgware Road station, families of the six victims, TfL staff and police gathered in the ticket hall for a minute’s silence at 8.50. Commuters halted at the ticket barriers for a moment of reflection. One man stood, with his head in his hands, silently crying. A woman walked from the crowd wiping away tears.
Floral tributes were also left at Aldgate station, where seven people died, and one man stopped to pray at the entrance.
Cameron paid tribute to the “grace and the dignity” of families who lost loved ones.
The prime minister said: “Ten years on, this is one of those days where everyone remembers exactly where they were when they heard the news.
“It’s a day when we recall the incredible resolve and resolution of Londoners and the United Kingdom, a day when we remember the threat we still face but above all it’s a day when we think of the grace and the dignity of the victims’ families for all they have been through and we honour the memory of those victims.”
Mayor Boris Johnson wrote on his wreath at Hyde Park : “Ten years may have passed, but London’s memory is undimmed. We honour again today the victims of 7/7. You will live forever in the hearts of the people of this city.”
A bunch of flowers was left with a card signed by “a fellow Londoner” which said: “Thinking of each & every one of you. You are not forgotten.”
