Shots fired outside Houses of Parliament

now there's tons of coppers there. why do they need so many? what do they actually do?
Stop other people getting stabbed or run over if there was another attacker, even if that means getting stabbed or run over themselves?

Supporting LAS, LFB and members of the public in giving first aid to stop people bleeding out?

Finding out as quickly as possible if anyone else was involved and is planning to stab or run over more people and stop them doing it?

Aside from that, probably nothing.
 
Sites now claiming to name the attacker. A familiar face.

London terror attack: who is he?

To his Mum? Trevor.

The man believed to behind this morning's London terror attack is Abu Izzadeen, a hate preacher from London.

The alleged attacker has died following the incident outside the UK Parliament.
Izzadeen is a British spokesman for Muslim organisation Al Ghurabaa - a group banned under the Terrorism Act 2006 for glorifying terrorist attacks.

The London-born man served four and a half years for terrorist fundraising and inciting overseas terrorism and was freed in May 2009 after serving three and a half years behind bars.

The alleged attacker received treatment, but has since died (Twitter)
He was born Trevor Brooks, converted to Islam the day before his 18th birthday and changed his name to Omar. Abu Izzadeen is his preferred name.

In 2009, footage of Izzadeen was posted to YouTube in which he encourages others to "kill the police".

The 41-year-old described the 7/7 suicide bombers in the city as "completely praiseworthy," and was filmed the night before preaching to Muslims mocking those who believe in resisting Islamic terrorism.

He previously stated he wanted to die as a suicide bomber, and claims to have attended terror training camps in Afghanistan.

Izzadeen, a British citizen, was most recently arrested in 2015 for not announcing his exit of the UK, when he visited Hungary.
 
If it was him, wow. He's practically a celeb jihadist, though I suppose it isn't possible to stop such a basic attack without internment or other such draconian laws.
 
C4 named him as Trevor Brooks

Abu Izzadeen - Wikipedia

On 20 September 2006, Abu Izadeen and Anjem Choudary disrupted Home Secretary John Reid's first public meeting with Muslims since his appointment. He called Reid an "enemy" of Islam.[12] John Humphrys interviewed Izzadeen on the 22 September 2006 edition of BBC Radio 4's Today programme. In a heated discussion Abu Izzadeen stated that his aim was to bring about Sharia law in the UK and that this should be achieved without following the democratic process but rather "in accordance to the Islamic methodology".[13]
