Boris Johnson has been banned from cycling to work amid fears he is now a prime target for terrorists. As Mayor of London, he routinely cycled from his home to City Hall near Tower Bridge and around the city to meetings. Mr Johnson wanted to continue doing so after he was installed as Foreign Secretary, Daily Mail reports.
But the Metropolitan Police have told Johnson it is too dangerous in his new high-powered role.
"He pushed back, but the coppers were adamant and he accepts he makes quite a recognizable target. He is now working on other ways to burn off all those big diplomatic dinners." a friend of Johnson said.
