Why, because it's London?

In that case, can you suggest some other imagery that is distinctively British?

Personally I am not sure that any other British city is iconic enough
to be internationally recognisable.

Stonehenge? (Not very modern or forwards-looking!) Olympics stadium?
(Not finished yet.)

None of the UK mountains are particularly recognisable - I doubt I
could tell Snowdon or Ben Nevis or anything from any other random
mountain in temperate climes. Loch Ness? The Lake District?
