Statement to voters

Howard Legg: A Clear Choice for Dorset’s Police and Crime Commissioner I have the breadth and depth of experience to be Dorset’s next Police and Crime Commissioner.

Full statement

With a background spanning engineering, finance, education, and public service, I will bring my experience to Dorset Police.

Every crime matters – every victim matters. Dorset police are stretched too thin. It is time for our police to demonstrate to you that every crime matters. I will fight to ensure every Police Officer and PCSO will be trained to a good standard in investigation, so that every reported crime is taken seriously.

Prevention is better than crime. Our police record crimes that have been reported or detected, but not those that are prevented. As your Police and Crime commissioner I will prioritise crime prevention in Dorset by ensuring every Police Officer and PCSO is trained to a good standard of crime prevention.

Stronger community policing. Liberal Democrats believe that community is at the heart of everything we do. As your Police and Crime Commissioner, I will ensure every Police Officer and PCSO is trained to a good standard in public contact.

As Dorset faces critical decisions in law enforcement and community well-being, I am the clear choice for Police and Crime Commissioner on Thursday 2nd May.

Published and promoted by G. Pardy on behalf of H. Legg (Liberal Democrats), all at 70 Doveshill Park, 18 Barnes Road, Bournemouth, BH10 5AJ.
