London attack air exclusion zone?

[mickjoebill]

Following the attack, was an air exclusion zone declared around Westminster?

It didn't look like it as Sky was flying the entire time

I can't imagine no exclusion zone and perhaps the use of drones were used by the media

Intelligent policing/politics to allow live coverage.

The exclusion came into enforcement approximately 2hrs after the initial attack. The press aircraft were informed of this by ATC and asked to leave the area.

I was in central London during and after the attack. There were two media helicopters and one police helicopter overhead at Westminster pretty much just after the attack until the evening when just the police helicopter was out. It was pretty much the same the next day.
