          Something seems to have gone wrong with your post and cut off the rest of the quotation. FTFY.

            3 injured (2 with minor injuries) against 5 killed and many injured. I would say that was an improvement.

                Against 5 killed where? Are you assuming that the defences in place to protect the HoP helped to protect the cyclists? You're stretching things there.

                  Or photographers grab chance to get a photo standing on the bridge with the Palace of Westminster in the background without hoards of others or traffic marring the view. But that doesn't fit with the agenda, does it?

                    Would've made a better picture with a certain blue helicopter on the bridge... ...again.
