People in Luton have been paying their respects to the victims of the Westminster terror attacks by signing a book of condolence at the Town Hall.

The Borough Council opened the book to give people a chance to write messages of support to the families of those who lost their lives or were injured in the terrible events on Wednesday afternoon.

The flag above the Town Hall also flew at half-mast today, and the leader of the Council Hazel Simmons says that everyone in the town is still coming to terms with what happened.

Anyone who wishes to sign the book can do so by heading to the Town Hall reception area where it will be on display until further notice.
