Comment on the stabbing of a police officer in Wood Green

Commenting on the stabbing of a police officer in Wood Green in the early hours of Sunday morning, Lynne Featherstone says:

"First and foremost, our thoughts are with the officer and his family.I am shocked and appalled by this senseless act of violence against someone who devotes their professional life to protecting our community.

"There must now be an investigation of the circumstances of this incident to see what lessons can be learnt and to make sure our officers are safe.

"This is a sad reminder of how dangerous knives are and why knife crime should be treated as seriously as gun crime - particularly in sentencing.I wish a speedy recovery to the officer and very much hope the perpetrator is brought to justice."
