Labour’s claim to be the party of law and order is absurd and extraordinary. Whether it be Mayor Sadiq Khan presiding over high rates of knife crime, the West Midlands Police and Crime Commissioner closing police stations despite receiving extra funding, or the previous Labour council in Croydon failing to prevent anti-social behaviour, Labour’s record is not one to be proud of.
There is only one party of law and order. The Conservative Party has cut crime by 50% over the past 12 years and we are also on schedule to deliver record police numbers through our Police Uplift Programme.
