Speaking in the House of Lords on 15 December 2025

Debate

Crime and Policing Bill

Contribution

I leave it there. What is going on is clearly unacceptable. It irritates large numbers of people, whatever their political persuasion. It unfairly bears down on those who are older and less able to look after themselves as they go about their business. What we have heard today is a collective frustrated cry for somebody to do something about it. I just hope that we will not be having a similar discussion in five years.
