The US has lifted the ban on military personnel going to London following fierce criticism from the government and tourist officials.
The ban was imposed on 10,000 UK-based Air Force personnel who were told not to venture within the M25 boundary following last week’s attacks.
It sparked widespread criticism at a time when overseas visitors, including Americans, were urged not to cancel their plans to visit London.
