The 57-year-old condemned the reopening of Westminster Bridge, where four innocent civilians were murdered and killer Khalib Masood was gunned down, stressing that life will never go on of their loved ones.
After taking a stroll past the very spot which has broken the hearts of the United Kingdom, both Eamonn and his wife Ruth Langsford admitted the trip was “difficult”.
“It was extraordinary,” said Ruth, 57. “There were buses running past and now there are tourists there because this is the only chance they’ll get to see Big Ben.”
“I think it opened too quickly,” Eamonn stressed. “Out of decency they should have closed the pedestrian runway. We need to remember that people were killed there less than 48 hours ago.
“If you were a member of the families of people who were killed, to think of people walking across that bridge now.”
He continued: “People say it shows we won’t be beaten and life moves on, but life doesn’t go on of the families of those people.”
Taking aim at Theresa May, he barked: “The first thing the Prime Minister should have done is go there and lay down a wreath for this who were slaughtered. There should have been day of closing that bridge for a night of reflection.
“It’s all good saying we get on with our lives but people lost their lives.”
During yesterday’s instalment of the ITV programme Holly Willoughby revealed she saw murdered police officer Keith Palmer just hours before his horrifying death.
