WOKINGHAM’S MP John Redwood has praised Parliament’s decision to resume in light of the terror attacks in Westminster yesterday.

Writing on his blog, Mr Redwood offered his condolences to those affected by the attack, and said it ‘reminds us of the risks some state employees run in the course of duty’.

The statement said: “I send my condolences to the family members of those killed by the assailant yesterday and my best wishes for a speedy recovery to all those injured.

“The death of a policeman is especially sad. It reminds us of the risks some state employees run in the course of duty, and strengthens public gratitude for their service.

“It is right that Parliament resumes its work today. The Prime Minister spoke well on how we should respond.”

Read the Prime Minister and Twyford MP, Theresa May MP’s full statement to the House of Commons here.
