Flowers laid in memoriam of PC Keith Palmer outside Parliament Buildings, Parliament Square, City of Westminster, London, UK

---

Keith David Palmer (3 October 1968 – 22 March 2017) was a British police officer who was posthumously awarded the George Medal, the second-highest award for gallantry "not in the face of the enemy". Though unarmed, he stopped Khalid Masood, a knife-wielding terrorist from entering the Palace of Westminster during the 2017 Westminster attack; he was fatally wounded in the attack. He had worked for the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) for 16 years, and had joined the force's Parliamentary and Diplomatic Protection Group in April 2016.
