Nick Raynsford: 'Woolwich community needs reassurance'

The MP for Woolwich and Greenwich Nick Raynsford has said the local community needs reassurance after a suspected terror attack in which a member of the armed forces was killed outside Woolwich Barracks.

Eyewitnesses say the victim was hacked to death by two men shouting Islamist slogans.

Mr Raynsford said there must be a focus on the mixed community of Woolwich.

"It's extremely important that we don't allow those people who would like to ferment trouble to do so in this situation."
