00:00I want to be very clear that this is a horrifying attack. It is now being declared as a terrorist

00:05incident and my thoughts are with the victims, their families and the wider community as well. An attack on our

00:12Jewish community is an attack on us all and we take the safety of our Jewish community very seriously.

00:18The government has already been taking action on security, on making sure that our synagogues, our community centres, our Jewish

00:25schools are well protected. There has been an enhanced police presence that will continue and we will strain every sinew

00:32to keep all of our Jewish community safe.
