On another thread one contributor was suggesting that the terrorist threat was a good reason for Americans not to visit Europe. Personally I consider this to be scaremongering at it's worst.

I suggested that these things should be put in perspective and put forward the argument that more people are killed or injured by London Buses every year than were killed by the terrorist attacks in Brussels and Paris.

You can see the figure for yourself in the attached report.

So to my American cousins I hope you will be wary of buses when you visit our cities.
