Starmer: Police must have feared for their lives in Golders Green attack

Available for over a year

The terror threat level has been increased to severe as Britain's top police officer says that the UK faces a pandemic of antisemitism and the government's adviser on terrorism says we face a national emergency. This crisis on the streets of Britain is just one of many crises which Sir Keir Starmer, the Prime Minister, has been facing in recent weeks and months. The crisis triggered by the war in Iran threatens to tear up his plans and hopes for the economy. The ongoing war in Ukraine continues to cause real problems for British businesses and British households. Nick Robinson has been speaking to Sir Keir Starmer for BBC Radio 4’s Today programme, about his meeting with police who arrested the suspect in the Golders Green attack. He criticises comments about the arrest from Green Party leader Zack Polanski. Mr Polanski has now apologised for "sharing a tweet in haste", adding that he should not have commented on police actions via social media.
