How many more children? I came here to pay my respects to the victims and families who are going through raw pain and grief that most of us can't imagine. I can't imagine as a dad myself to get a briefing from the Chief Constable and the emergency services about the ongoing investigation. But also importantly to have the opportunity to say to those that were responding yesterday from the emergency services, to say a personal thank you to them and to shake their hand and to say that as Prime Minister, on behalf of the country, we are grateful for what they did. They, of course, say that they will respond their professionals to anything, but there's no pretending that what they had to respond to yesterday was ordinary. It was very, very difficult of them. They were absolutely professional, and it was important for me to come and say simple words, Thank you. I think it touches a nerve with the whole country. It's awful to contemplate what happened. To hear for myself, the experiences of the first responders, what they had to deal with. It's really hard to take in for anybody. It's not what any of them came to work for, but, of course, they're professionals, and they deal with it. I think about the families, the friends, the loved ones, those directly impacted. And, of course, the wider community here. But there's no pretending, I think that anybody in the country is not untouched by what happened yesterday. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Taylor Swift ‘In Shock’ After Stabbing at English Children’s Dance Class","description":"Taylor Swift says she is \"just completely in shock\" over Monday's savage knife attack at a Swift-themed children's workshop in northwest England.
