It is a statue of Winston Churchill.... in the statue he is hunched over and from the angle they shot it does look like he headless but actually in the statue he is not.

It's the statue of Winston Churchill located at Parliament Square, Westminster, London, UK. His head is somewhat bowed and he has a walking stick. It's been there since 1973 and was made by Ivor Roberts-Jones. It is bronze and 12 feet tall. In the film it was photographed from the back with The Elizabeth Tower clock, commonly known as Big Ben visible in the background
