Give Police more power during the Covid 19 crisis to keep Law & Order

Petition Details

Give the Police more power to deal with members of the general public who are unwilling to comply to the new measures put in place during the Covid 19 crisis.

Additional Information

People not willing to comply to new restrictions need to be dealt with swiftly and firmly during a time of crisis. We can not afford to be using up time and ressources on individuals who are unwilling to accept the new restrictions to help us tackle and get through this crisis. Giving the Police more power would also help to reassure the general public and set the tone that the general public want to see. Strict law and order in turbulent times.
