Commenting on Haringey ‘A-level’ result day, Lynne Featherstone, Liberal Democrat MP for Hornsey & Wood Green, said:

“Well done to all our local students. I always feel hugely sorry for the young people sitting exams as each year so much of the coverage isn’t about celebrating their success, but about knocking the results.

“There’s a time and a place for debate over exam standards, but there’s also a time and a place for celebrating success.So a big ‘well done’ to our local students from me.”
