Politics Live: Keir Starmer tells forces 'put bobbies on the beat or lose cash'

These new officers will work with local people and businesses to develop action plans to stop louts causing chaos. This comes amid efforts to boost neighbourhood officers by 13,000 by 2029 to “turn the tide of rising criminality”.
