Give the Police more powers and finance and start police patrols again
Police do not attend many crimes now, car theft is on the rise, knife crime is on the rise, gang and drug problems are on the rise. Police officers are always saying they need more money, powers and officers. There are too many that are assaulted.
I was strangled, yet the man who was high on drugs and a thief was only jailed for those, I had a witness too yet he was never charged with my assault, if my friend was not with me, he would have killed me. Also, I feel police need to come when called to any anti social, burglary, theft, assault etc.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. In particular, we're not sure what new powers you want the police to have.
In any case, we can only accept petitions which call for clear actions that are the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament. Operational decisions about policing are the responsibility local police forces and elected Police and Crime Commissioners. You can find your Police and Crime Commissioner here:
www.gov.uk/police-and-crime-commissioners
There's already a petition about police funding, which you might like to sign and share. You're more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition:
petition.parliament.uk/petitions/251196
You could start a new petition calling for a clear action that's the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
