Rishi Sunak will take the fight on crime to Labour next week as he unveils his anti-social behaviour crackdown.
With just weeks until the local elections, the Prime Minister will vow to work ‘tirelessly’ to tackle the blight of disorder in communities as part of his ‘levelling up agenda’.
The action plan will focus on tougher punishments for offenders, swifter justice for victims as well as support for young people to get into sports and other activities.
It comes just a week after Labour announced a series of policy pledges to reduce crime, including a commitment to ‘halve serious violent crime’.
