Policies

We must adopt a zero tolerance approach to crime and antisocial behaviour. 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 people. Ensure there is more visible policing with a focus on combating violent crime, robbery and burglary rather than enforcing restrictions on free speech or policing tweets.

Target the menace of County 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.

Reform our courts and justice system to work faster and smarter.
