Re: Travel Warning for England
It was on CBC news here, and they said it was because of the "huge" Brexit and anti-Brexit demonstrations due to take place in London tomorrow.
Various MPs have been threatened with death ................ it's quite horrifying what has been happening if you read some of the UK newspapers.

Re: Travel Warning for England
MPs advised to travel in groups to avoid abuse
Not death threats but...
And of course
And
Not death threats but...
“Many colleagues have already been subject to widely publicised abuse and intimidation.” On Thursday parliament’s human rights committee published a letter from Max Hill, the director of public prosecutions, listing a string of prosecutions against people who had abused or threatened an MP.
The murder of the Labour MP Jo Cox in 2016, for which the killer was jailed for life, and a far-right plot to kill another Labour MP
The Labour MP Lloyd Russell-Moyle said on Thursday evening he had been attacked by a man in his Brighton Kemptown constituency who said MPs were traitors.Russell-Moyle said the man then “tried to assault me, grabbed and bent my glasses, and for a moment I thought he was going to hit me”, before three men pulled the assailant away. The MP accused May of having “whipped up fear and division” with her speech.

Re: Travel Warning for England
I just checked our Smartraveller site for advice on the UK - no mention of Brexit/riots, 'exercise normal safety precautions'.
