Last week's savage knife attack in Belfast was truly shocking. It was also deeply disturbing to see rioting break out. I was invited on to Sky News to discuss this, as a former Northern Ireland Secretary. This gave me the chance to point out the violent racist disorder is not a way to defend a community or a culture. It is not only wrong, but entirely counter-productive. I commend the PSNI for their work in tackling the disturbances.

Great day at the Barnet Medieval Festival. In 1471, Barnet was the location for a major victory for the Yorkist side in the Wars of the Roses. It is the site of the only recognised battlefield in Greater London.

Very bad news for Barnet today: Sadiq Khan's Deputy Mayor, Jules Pipe, has approved TfL's plan to build blocks of flats over High Barnet station car park. The loss of this park-and-ride facility will cause big problems for commuters, especially people with impaired mobility who depend on their cars to get to the station and cannot easily use alternative modes of transport. Closing the car park is also expected to have a negative impact on women's safety, particularly shift workers travelling home late at night.

I campaigned against these blocks for years as MP. So I joined other Barnet residents at City Hall this morning to make the case against this plan by TfL.

Yesterday I was honoured to address a rally in Trafalgar Square to mark Mullivaikkal Remembrance Day. On 18th May every year, Tamils in the UK and around the world remember the many thousands of people who lost their lives during the closing stages of the Sri Lankan civil war in 2009.

The International Committee of the Red Cross described what happened as "an unimaginable human catastrophe”.

No fire zones were declared by the Sri Lankan Government. Civilians were told to relocate there. The Sri Lankan armed forces then fired ruthlessly into the area, knowing it was packed with civilians, crammed into what they had been told would be a place of safety.

During my time as MP, I repeatedly spoke out on the importance of holding to account those responsible for the war crimes committed at Mullivaikkal. I repeated that in my speech yesterday. I called on the UK government to use all possible diplomatic means to push for negotiations to deliver a new settlement in Sri Lanka which guarantees Tamil rights, Tamil equality, and Tamil participation in power-sharing government.

As Jewish people across Barnet prepare for Friday night dinner and the start of Shabbat, many will be feeling anxious and insecure. After the appalling events which have taken place, culminating in the violent knife attack earlier this week, I want to express my solidarity and support for the Jewish community.

It is completely unacceptable to subject anyone to racist hate crimes. I find it sickening that anti-Jewish racism has manifested right here in north London. Everyone should have the right to lead their lives and practice their faith as they choose. They should not have to place security guards outside their places of worship or community facilities. Nor should they be made to feel fearful in their own neighbourhood.

We must all stand together in support of our Jewish friends, family and neighbours. We must call out the evil of antisemitism wherever it surfaces.

Great to welcome Shadow Chief Secretary to the Treasury, Richard Fuller MP, to Barnet to support Conservative local election candidates for Whetstone ward Kevin Ghateh and Stephen Lewis.

We spoke to traders in Whetstone High Road. Kemi Badenoch has promised that if the Conservatives return to government, they would scrap business rates for thousands of retail and hospitality businesses to help local high streets.
