London's reputation as a financial centre suffered a major blow after a computer collapse paralysed the stock market for nearly seven hours.
In a extraordinary fiasco, the London Stock Exchange (LSE) was forced to halt to share trading for most of today's session because of 'connectivity' problems.
It was a massive setback for an exchange that normally sees £8billion of shares traded every day.
