An MP got an idea of a policeman's lot when she joined police on the beat.

Hornsey & Wood Green MP Lynne Featherstone joined two officers and a neighbourhood watch representative on a walk in Crouch End.

They discussed tackling burglary and vehicle crime in the local area, as well as measures to deter anti-social behaviour and crimes against the person.

Ms Featherstone said: “The local police do a fantastic job around here.

“It was great to join them on the walk-about and see them in action.”
