This is appalling. There must be consequences for crime. Rapists must go to prison.

Great to join @BBC3CR this morning to talk about tackling tool theft across Hertfordshire 🛠️ We’re supporting tradespeople with FREE marking kits to help protect their equipment and crack down on offenders 🔧 📍 Roadshows are running across the county 🌐 For more information visit my website herts-pcc.gov.uk #ToolTheft #Hertfordshire #ProtectYourTools #SelectaDNA

Hands off our tools! Tradespeople having their tools nicked is unacceptable. It means damaged livelihoods, customers let down and huge cost of replacement. I’m backing Hertfordshire tradespeople with free forensic marking kits to protect tools. Come to one of the events across the county or request a free kit at herts-pcc.gov.uk

This is @KemiBadenoch’s chamber, you’re just sitting in it.

No it’s not. Councils exist to deliver services for local people and improve their areas. Too many have lost sight of that.

Good luck to @Conservatives candidates standing across Hertfordshire today. It’s been great campaigning with you and talking to residents across the county. Vote Conservative to Get Britain Working Again. Polls are open until 10pm!

The Conservative Party is clear: if you want to spread hatred and violence towards Jews, you are not welcome in Britain.

Antisemitism is not new but it is becoming more visible and violent in the UK. We must not accept it as inevitable. Sending ‘thoughts and prayers’ after each incident doesn’t cut it. There must be action: To confront the hatred head on. To keep Jewish communities safe. To take robust action against offenders.

Jewish people in our country are under constant attack. This is no longer a growing pattern. There is an epidemic of violence against Jewish people. It is now a national emergency and needs to be treated as such by the Government and public authorities.

Starmer is clueless on shoplifting: • It’s already a crime to assault someone (whether retail worker or not) • Transferring low value (<£200) cases from Magistrates to Crown Court will increase Court delays • His sentencing changes mean shoplifters will almost never be jailed

This is an important result for policing. Live Facial Recognition technology works and has appropriate safeguards. Wanted criminals being nicked is a good thing and keeps the public safe.

This morning, I visited the Jewish community in Golders Green and the site of the appalling antisemitic attacks on the Hatzola ambulances. Those responsible must be caught, imprisoned and if they’re not British citizens, deported We can no longer tolerate calls for Jihad and Intifada on the streets of London. These are calls for violence which fuel antisemitism - and must no longer be allowed

Crime should never be normal in Britain. Our Take Back Our Streets campaign will restore order, catch criminals, and back the police to do their job.

It’s time to Take Back Our Streets. @CPhilpOfficial sets out our plan to hire 10,000 additional police officers and use them to patrol the highest crime areas, funded by our £47bn savings package. 👇

Britain’s High Streets are plagued by shoplifting, phone snatching, open cannabis use, e-scooters and crime Enough is enough It’s time to Take Back Our Streets. Here’s our plan 👇

A prolific Hertfordshire fare dodger has walked free and told he can repay just £20 per month. Another soft sentence that makes a mockery of law abiding citizens. The Government must change the law so that unduly lenient sentences in Magistrate’s Courts can be challenged.

Fewer than 3 out of 10 support Labour’s plan to merge police forces. 77% fear police will 'lose local knowledge and community connections'. The public are right. The Government must change course on these unpopular plans for regional police forces. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

This is what effective Parliamentary opposition looks like. The British people deserve to know the truth about Mandelson. It will inevitably end in the Prime Minister’s resignation due to his catastrophic errors of judgement. Well done @KemiBadenoch
