One of the main issues for local residents that we have spoken with throughout 2025 is crime and policing in the local area.

This featured highly in our 2025 resident survey, and it is commonly raised by those we speak to on doorsteps and in other forms of correspondence with us. Whether it’s car-related crimes, burglaries, thefts from people and properties, shoplifting or other crimes, many residents have been directly affected or know someone who has.

That is why we have organised a public meeting with the Met Police for Haringey residents to attend on Thursday 8 January 2026 from 7pm at the Royal British Legion in Muswell Hill, so that you can hear directly from them on what action is being taken to support victims, increase patrols, and catch offenders; and to put your questions to them.

The meeting is free to attend; however, space is limited and there has been a lot of community interest so residents will need to RSVP above to be guaranteed entry.

This is a free event.  It will be a friendly, relaxed event where like minded people can discuss our campaigns and how we can challenge Reform UK.
