Keir Starmer pledges 13,000 more police on streets in major plan with vows on NHS and schools

^{Published on 2024-12-04 22:00:50 - Brian Stokes, N@N}

Keir Starmer will promise 13,000 extra neighbourhood policing officers, PCSOs and special constables in England and Wales by next election as part of a major speech

Keir Starmer, the Labour Party leader, has pledged to recruit an additional 13,000 neighborhood police officers to enhance community policing in the UK. This initiative aims to address the decline in neighborhood policing, which Starmer attributes to Conservative government cuts. He emphasized that these new officers would focus on community engagement, tackling issues like anti-social behavior, and fostering trust between the police and the public. Starmer made these commitments during a visit to the West Midlands Police Federation, highlighting the need for a return to "proper community policing" to make streets safer and communities stronger. This policy is part of Labour's broader plan to reform and strengthen the criminal justice system.
