Speaking in the House of Lords on 20 January 2026

Debate

Crime and Policing Bill

Contribution

A lot of these incidents—and the aggravation—have been amplified by at least one officer, and sometimes multiple officers, attending to talk to the person who has not committed an offence. If you receive a visit from the police, all you can conclude is that the police are investigating—why would you not?—and everybody in the street will perhaps think the same thing too.
