Dave, having lived through 9/11 in Washington, DC, it seems to me that you have to consider how the workers of London's fast food restaurants would get to work, and then home again, without mass transit. I don't know London's neighborhoods, but my guess is that the wages paid to those workers does not allow them to live within walking distance. There may or may not be an "imminent threat" of danger - and on this day who can make that call other than the government, right or wrong? - but there are good reasons to limit traffic and congestion for the rest of the day.
