Following the threat of a terrorist attack, police have warned Westminster businesses and shops to be extra vigilant.

Police believe the Real IRA, a radical splinter group in the Irish Republican movement, is planning a bombing campaign in central London.

Officers have warned that bombs the size of cigarette packets could be hidden in clothes and upholstery, causing fires when detonated.

Police are urging businesses to review safety procedures. Staff should regularly search vulnerable areas and make sure their CCTV is working properly.
