The Lib Dems - soft on crime


The Lib Dems are totally out of touch and soft on crime. Their record is one of consistent opposition to Labour’s tough measures to tackle crime and anti-social behaviour, and their policies prove they cannot be trusted on these vital issues of our nation’s security.
The truth is the Lib Dems are more interested in protecting the rights of teen gangs and yobs than protecting the decent law-abiding people who are threatened by them.Labour has taken tough measures to crack down on crime and anti-social behaviour. But the Lib Dems have repeatedly tried to block these measures and would deprive the police and local authorities of the powers to take on the vandals and the bullies. They have opposed our tough action on the yobs who blight the lives of hard-working families.If it were down to the Lib Dems, the police would not have the power to disperse gangs of youths, impose Anti-Social Behaviour Orders on the worst offenders, and give curfews to people causing trouble late at night.
