    When Bush came to London a fair few years ago the US Secret Service wanted to close the road from the airport (Heathrow) to Downing St from the day before – that’d be the M4/A4 etc…

    They did though inspect and seal all the man-holes.

    But why he didn’t just helicopter in and land nearby (St James’s) I’ll never know.

    I’ve read that despite having lots of, some, a few nice shiny noisy things that go NEEEEOOOOW the RAF don’t get nearly as much playtime flying time as they’d like due to budget cuts. So maybe Biggles and Co. saw this conference as a good excuse to rip the place up get some valuable flying time?
