‘Spiralling’ shoplifting and the election: Shopkeepers demand action

How the parties plan to tackle shoplifting and anti-social behaviour:

Labour says it will “scrap the effective immunity for some shoplifting offences” and “create a new specific offence for assaults on shopworkers”.

The Conservatives say they will recruit 8,000 more police officers, giving “every neighbourhood an additional police officer”.

The Liberal Democrats say they will invest more in “frontline policing” by “scrapping Police and Crime Commissioners and replacing them with Local Police Boards, made up of councillors and representatives from relevant local groups”.

The Green Party says it will “repair and renew our crumbling court system with a £2.5bn investment”.

Reform UK pledges 40,000 “new frontline” police officers over a five-year period. It says that would mean there will be 300 officers per 100,000 of the population.
