Eerie scenes in central London today: a replica of the motorcade in which President John F Kennedy was assassinated, in November 1963.
The Lincoln limousine — snapped and tweeted by many baffled onlookers — was occupied by lookalikes of JFK and his wife Jackie, wearing her famous pink suit and hat (no John and Nellie Connally as far as we know).
Everyone is confused about why JFK was in London today https://t.co/Taxk7605o6

We're not quite sure what it's all about. Certainly we're nowhere near any kind of anniversary of Kennedy's assassination. There's been conjecture it's got something to do with the US elections, but again we've no idea what.
Saw this motorcade going through London earlier (including JFK!) Assume it is something to do with the #USElection? pic.twitter.com/xMCI0e0sKv

Whoever these people are, we'd suggest they keep well away from the grassy knoll that is Primrose Hill, and any branches of Dallas Chicken & Ribs.
Someone said 'Mind your head' as JFK & Jackie Kennedy pulled away. The Buick & Lincoln petrol fumes may get him 1st pic.twitter.com/ozMUSK5RzV
