We’ll Be Tough on Law & Order

  • No more kneeling, politicised police officers
  • More, visible officers to target violent crime, robbery and burglary
  • More, visible officers to target, drug dealers, gangs and knife crime

We are increasingly hearing of horror stories of muggings, rape, stabbings, groom gangs and murders. Social media might have a role to play in disseminating news faster and to a greater audience.

We need the public to have faith in our police officers, and that they will police equally, without fear or favor.

It certainly feels like everything is being policed except for crime.

It seems there is two tier policing within the police . We have seen different groups being given very different treatment. Our police officers knelt in front of Black Lives Matter protestors while they destroyed statues and caused damage, while donning full riot gear for the marches by ex-servicemen who only wanted to defend our statues from further harm.

We must adopt a zero tolerance approach to crime and antisocial behavior. This starts at the ground level. Common sense dictates more police on the streets will help prevent crime and help catch criminals.

Increase police numbers in the community , with officers on the beat, engaging with the local community.

Ensure there is more visible policing with a focus on combating violent crime,robbery and burglary rather than enforcing restrictions on free speech and harassing people sitting on a park bench .

Target the menace of Country Lines drug dealers, gangs and the growth of knife crime.

Our police need much better technology to help them when they are on the streets.Some of what they currently use is archaic. This can substantially reduce bureaucracy and paperwork.

 

Prisons

 

The current system of parole in our prisons is designed to release criminals early to free up valuable space required for new prisoners.

The average  prisoner only serves 50% of whatever sentence they are given. This gives the impression of being tough on crime while letting criminals back out into society before they have served their full sentence.

This needs to changes I would like to see tougher laws and sentences.
