              Lib Dems would scrap ID Cards to fund radical police reforms
Friday, September 5th, 2008
The Liberal Democrats yesterday accused both Labour and the Conservatives of ducking the hard decisions on police reform in favour of a sentencing arms race, as they launched their proposals for fundamental reform of the way the police are run. The ideas, outlined in the paper Cutting Crime: Catching Criminals With Better Policing, highlight the urgent need to move the criminal justice debate away from what sounds tough to what actually works, with a shift away from prison towards policing and detection. The main proposals include: Commenting, Liberal Democrat Shadow Home Secretary, Chris Huhne said: “Prison, a sentencing arms race between Labour and the Tories, and Labour’s legislative diarrhoea in creating 3,600 new criminal offences since 1997, have been used as a proxy for real action on crime. “The radical proposals outlined by the Liberal Democrats today are designed to shift the debate away from posturing on penalties and towards catching criminals. “Labour and the Conservatives have repeatedly ducked the difficult decisions on police reform. Only the Liberal Democrats are committed to a review of outdated working practices in the police.” Copyright Publictechnology.net Have Your Say: Lib Dems would scrap ID Cards to fund radical police reforms Please read our posting guidelines before posting.
