The Deputy Mayor for Policing stated that the station would not be closed and auctioned until a foundation is found forward police teams that enable them to reach their locations in 20 minutes by walking or cycling. Omolarami Akindiji is happy to hear that the Met should provide new headquarters for neighborhood police team members actually stationed in Barnet police station if, indeed, the city Mayor continues with his plan to dispose of the facility. Omolarami Akindiji, who condemns the station's closing, begs the city Mayor not to abandon local police officers in Barnet without a place to call home. https://sites.google.com/view/omolaramiayodejiakindiji/home#h.wshmbpwu2x6s
