Crime and Policing

Without Labour’s expensive and ineffective ID card scheme, we can pay for 10,000 more police and 20,000 more community support officers, cutting crime and the fear of crime.

We will get tough on anti-social behaviour, cracking down on licensees who serve people when clearly drunk or underage, requiring late night venues to contribute to the cost of extra policing. Offensive behaviour will be tackled with "Acceptable Behaviour Contracts" agreed between the individual, their family, the police and local authority.

Prisoners would be subject to a tough working day, but with increased resources for education and training to learn the skills for a legitimate job. The effort put into acquiring useful skills would be considered when determining a prisoner’s release date.

We will make offenders pay back their victims and make more non-violent criminals do tough community work as an alternative to jail. Experience shows this reduces reoffending, gives offenders skills for legitimate work, and means that they pay back to the community.

Increasing police resources with new technology will cut time spent form filling and improve the detection and investigation of crime. Our new, co-ordinated UK Border Force will strengthen our borders against terrorism, drug smuggling and organised immigration crime.
