The attached photo shows a mettalic green and/or gold beetle of about 5mm, that I cannot identify, which is destroying my Victoria rhubarb. What is the name of the beetle and how can I control it?

These littel shiny beetles usually feed on dock-leaves which are related to rhubarb, They will feed for a time and then disappear. This is likely to have little or no effect on the rhubarb.
