Petition Action

Create a task force to combat motorbikes thefts in the NewcastleNorthumbria area

Petition Details

Invest some of our hard earned money into the police to combat the rising motorbike theft problem. As you may not know, the police are under funded and under manned, when a bike is stolen they produce a crime number and that’s it, no other investigation, we would like this to change.

Additional Information

The rising thefts in the area are becoming more alarming, people are getting too comfortable with stealing bikes as they are now doing it in broad day light, every day there’s a new post about someone’s bike being stolen, this has to stop. We pay our taxes just to have a bike stolen and then the police won’t or can’t do anything, this has to change, even if it was a small thing like Mandatory GPS trackers, or more motorcycle police in and out of the area.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

Decisions about local law enforcement are a matter for local police forces, not the UK Government or Parliament.

If you are concerned about law enforcement in your area you could raise your concerns with our local Police and Crime Commissioner, who is responsible for overseeing policing in your area. You can find contact details for your local Police and Crime Commissioner here: www.apccs.police.uk/find-your-pcc/

We could accept a petition calling on the Government to require GPS trackers be installed on all new motorcycles, if that's something you'd like to happen.
