Crime and Justice
The crime and justice system is in need of great reform. Our prisons are overcrowded so we have no choice but to let criminals walk free. Justice has become soft. The criminals are put before the victims. Police are tied to desks, ticking boxes instead of out and about, fighting crime and connecting with the community. In order to safeguard our streets, the justice system needs swift change.
We will withdraw from the European Convention on Human Rights by repealing the Human Rights Act 1998. This will be replaced with a British Bill of Rights, giving Britain back its control and the power to deport foreign criminals and terror suspects.
Prison sentence length for serious crimes will be made non-negotiable. Life means life. Lesser crime sentences will be made more inflexible, with early release allowed for good conduct only after 75% of the sentence has been served.
We will create more prison places by deporting foreign criminals to their countries of origin and making the current system more efficient.
Prisoners will lose the many luxuries and rights they now enjoy in prison and will be made to work on public service projects, such as coastal defences, in order to help pay for their upkeep.
The rights of a British citizen are not a right in themselves but a privilege. If you break the law, you effectively lose this privilege until you have served your sentence.
People will be given the right to defend their homes without the fear of prosecution.
Police will be freed from the politically correct culture they are currently trapped in, tied to desks or afraid to arrest criminals due to fear of prosecution. For example, the significant adaptation or repealing of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984.
Targets and tick boxes will be replaced with real crime fighting, and with police freed from offices they can get out into the community and connect with people.
The Conservative Party completely oppose giving criminals the vote. They lost that right when they broke the law.
