The Millennium Bridge is a relatively new, pedestrian only, bridge.

Westminster Bridge remains, Westminster Bridge.

Do people in the UK not own shovels?

I mean I don't suppose I could expect snowblowers, but a little capacity for self-reliance...

Maybe it's no big deal for people used to living in Fucking-the-fucking-middle-of-fucking-nowhere, USA, but in civilized areas it certainly IS fucking big fucking deal

eh, shows how much I know. I thought it snows in London regularly every winter. To me the news isn't that it snowed. The news is that it seldom snows there.
