If anything it feels about 10x more complex.

As the investigation continues, it is vital that this terrible attack is not used to spread fear, division, or hatred. Our focus must remain on supporting those affected, ensuring justice is served, and standing united against violence.

I also want to thank the emergency services for their swift and professional response, and everyone who cared for the injured over the weekend.

We owe immense gratitude to those who showed extraordinary courage during the attack, including train staff and members of the public who acted selflessly to protect others. Their bravery undoubtedly saved lives.

⏳This delay helps no one. It’s time for the council to listen to local people, recognise the strength of feeling, and make a firm commitment to protect Rotary Wood once and for all.

💧 Water Quality – It’s time for tougher regulation and stronger fines, and to stop bill payers footing the bill for water companies’ failures.
