So they wanna build a *ahem* ‘ring of steel’ to stop Big Ben crashing on Parliament in the event of a terror attack….
Why?
I mean, I can see the point of protecting Big Ben….
…but judging by the direction this government’s going, Parliamentary destruction would almost seem like a legitimate regime change…

The ring of steel idea is more to protect an entire area. It’d be like a giant steel barrier protecting the place where big ben and the parlement are.
So, anybody walking into the RING would be subject to security checks.
It’s a pretty moronic idea. There’s no such defense against terrorism. Somebody can just fire a RPG into the Ring.
Let’s just make giant reactive armor bubbles around everything.

…and have ’em powered by (post-modification)Shizuma drives. That’d be a far more effective deterrent…
