The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, said: “Today we honour and remember Saskia Jones and Jack Merritt who were tragically killed in the appalling terrorist attack at Fishmongers’ Hall two
years ago.
“Saskia and Jack chose to dedicate themselves to helping others. They were passionate about changing the world for the better, and we continue to draw inspiration and hope from the way they lived their lives.
“I would also like to pay tribute to the heroic efforts of our emergency services and the bravery of ordinary Londoners who ran towards danger that day to help save the lives of strangers. The way our city came together and stood united in the aftermath of the attack showed the world once again that those who seek to divide us and destroy our way of life in London will never succeed.
“As Mayor, I’m determined to continue working with communities, partners and the police to counter this threat and to do everything possible to keep Londoners safe.” Photo by Northcote Lea, Wikimedia commons.
