Prime minister David Cameron has joined Prince Williams to
confirm they will attend the match between England and France scheduled for
tonight at Wembley stadium despite the security concerns that have been raised
since the deadly attacks by ISIS terrorists in Paris last weekend which killed
at 129 people. Around 70,000 people including Prince Williams and Mayor of
London Boris Johnson are expected to attend today's game as a sign of
solidarity against the ISIS terrorists.

with the French Team as a mark of solidarity
On Tuesday night, when asked whether he would take his
children to Wembley for the match amid safety fears, Cameron replied:
"Yes I would. I think it's very important that we carry
on with our lives. What these terrorists want to do is to change our way of
life and to destroy our way of life. Yes we should be vigilant, and in a free
society you can never have 100% security. But in a free society you also have
the people and the police working together to keep us safe. So remember that,
but remember that our freedom depends on us showing resolve and carrying on our
way of life - which is precisely what we ought to do."
Football fans going to the game have been told to expect an
increased police and armed officers presence at transport hubs and "in and
around" the stadium.
