No shit Sherlock…is there someone who likes to be seen ‘soft on crime’…the key issue is how you try to prevent criminal behaviour and how you plan to ‘reform’ those individuals who committed crime
EDIT: labour official position against drug legalisation seems to signal that they are trying hard to be ‘like the Tories’
The best way to be tough on crime is to be tough on the causes of crime which is poverty, crap drug laws, lack of education , lack of housing and job security, etc
Btw Corbyn in 2017 used the “tough on crime, tough on the causes of crime” slogan, but let’s just roll right along with the narrative that he was weak on crime because the Daily Mail says so

How about being tough on white-collar crime, specifically the massive corruption at the heart of politics in the UK? How about Labour straight-out highlighting the dark money, money-laundering, bribery, Russian oligarchs, that have fuelled the Conservative Party, the Brexit vote, and all the think-tanks at 55 Tufton Street? How about being tough on the criminality of Murdoch and Dacre? How about committing to Leveson II? How about being tough on tax evasion?
The fact that Labour won’t do any of this suggests to me that either they’re up to their own necks in it, or are weak and spineless lickspittles. Both are bad.
Start with the tories and then work down to less serious crimes. Like serial killing.
Both the Labour Party and the Tory Party are rubbish on crime.
Lefties think it’s all the fault of “underlying causes” and punishing people is a backwards barbaric idea. As for the Tories… i don’t even know how to explain their incompetence.
Didn’t she used to host Most Haunted ?
Is the slogan ” Jane loves Dick, Jane loves Dick!”
