February 26 in Crime by Team Maynard

Photo of police officers, illustrating law and order and crimeLots of people across Blackpool and Cleveleys feel let down by the criminal justice system. They feel that it just isn’t on their side anymore.

Under Labour, the police are spending more time on paperwork and less time on police work.

Violent criminals are let off with cautions.

We can’t go on like this.

Cutting red tape and increasing the amount of time available to go on patrol will be a Conservative government’s priority for police.

We will reclaim control of our town centres at night so that they’re safe places for people to enjoy a night out, without fear of violence or intimidation. We will enable the police to take action against the causes of  binge-drinking hotspots, taking on irresponsible shops which knowingly sell alcohol to children.

Importantly, we will restore credibility and trust to the justice system so that people taking reasonable steps to stop a crime is not prosecuted. The law will be on the side of law-abiding people.
