Does The PM Read This Blog?
So can it be that our esteemed new PM and deputy PM read this blog? Only yesterday we called for the new coalition government to concentrate its efforts less on tackling the proliferation of crime-busting CCTV cameras and more on helping householders who find themselves confronting burglars. Then, low and behold, as we were pouring through the new government’s coalition agreement last night, we found a morsel under the Crime and Policing section that got us excited. “We will ensure people have the protection needed when they defend themselves against intruders”, it says.
Finally some common sense. There is a commitment here. What exactly this commitment means in practice we’ll have to wait and see. But it is there, in writing, so the government now has to be accountable to this.
How far do you think the government should go to ensure people’s safety against intruders? We’d like to hear your comments.
