Keir Starmer has addressed the nation after the "vile terrorist attack" in Golders Green yesterday.

Following a visit to the north west London suburb this afternoon, the Prime Minister spoke to the country from Downing Street.

Sir Keir pledged that the Government "will do everything in our power to stamp this hatred out".

"We will strengthen our security and protect our Jewish community. But I also call on everyone decent in this country to open their eyes to Jewish pain, Jewish suffering, and Jewish fear.

"I call on everyone to come together and fight anti-Semitism, and I call on everyone to fight for the decent, respectful, tolerant Britain that millions of people and I love so that our freedom and our values can still speak loud and true to a community that can no longer take it on faith."
