Lord Speaker’s Statement

Lord Fowler Excerpts

Thursday 19th December 2019 Lords Chamber

[The Lord Speaker (Lord Fowler)]

My Lords, I begin by recalling the terrorist attack that took place on London Bridge last month, during which Saskia Jones and Jack Merritt lost their lives. I am sure that I speak for the whole House when I extend our prayers and condolences to their loved ones. I should also like to place on the record our continued thanks to the police, all those who work tirelessly to keep us all safe, and those ordinary members of the public who, on this occasion, displayed such courage and valour.
