It's law and order policies I'm really interested in. At the moment we're far too soft it's help for the criminals and not the victims. The Liberal Democrat policies weren't very impressive on that score and we know Labour doesn't even know the meaning of the word justice, that's the problem. I'm hoping if the Conservatives get in they'll be tougher. UKIPs law and order policies were the strongest.
I agree, even as a liberal, that criminals aren't treated as harshly as one may like them to be. I remember the Baby P case- a few years in jail and a hidden identity worth a million pounds, all at the expense of the taxpayer, for child murderers. However, the parties are actually very similar in the UK, and with regards to policies like crime, there is no detail. Saying you're going to get the police on the streets instead of them doing paperwork is too blurred a policy, and the Tories, despite being the right wing party out of the three, have no true conservative is republican plans with regard to crime.
