Lynne Featherstone, Liberal Democrat MP for Hornsey and Wood Green, has praised the organisers and local residents who put on street parties for the Diamond Jubilee.

Lynne Featherstone MP commented:

“There were more than twenty street parties locally across the Bank Holiday weekend. It is a real tribute to the vitality of our local communities that people worked together to make the street parties so successful.

“I managed to visit some of the street parties. A large number of people put an enormous amount of work into putting the events on and a great time was had despite the weather. Everyone involved deserves great praise.”
