TT , Home Office HOME SECRETARY 2 Marsham Street, London SW1P 4DF wnw.homeoffice.gov.uk lan Johnston CBE, QPM Chief Constable British Transport Police 15 Tavistock Place 07 APR 2009 London WC1H 9SJ aw le G20 LONDON SUMMIT | would like to pass on warm thanks and appreciation for the outstanding effort of the British Transport Police in working with the City of London Police and the Metropolitan Police Service in so effectively managing what has been a huge policing and security operation over the past week, whilst simultaneously policing the rail and underground network. My thanks extend to everyone involved in policing the G20 London Summit across the British Transport Police, from the leadership shown by commanders to the professionalism exhibited by front-line officers when policing incidents of public disorder. With some aspects of the media inevitably focused on the points of conflict during the Summit, we should not lose sight of the fact that so many thousands of people were able to demonstrate peacefully and safely on our streets during London Summit week, while the high levels of security needed to protect those attending the Summit were simultaneously maintained.
