Debate
Crime and Policing BillContribution
The noble Lord, Lord Watts, referred to “other things”. I gently suggest that it is time to stop being afraid to tell the truth, and the whole truth, about organised crime and the appalling gangs involved in money laundering, county lines drugs and straightforward fraud. They are operating in almost every village, town and city in the UK. Here is a Bill that you might think would address some of this, or at least attempt to, but no: in 479 pages there is nothing about the urgent need to address the myriad crimes committed each day by these people.
