But crime is falling. Isn't it?
By refusing to police the streets properly, those who are paid to do so, and those to whom they are notionally answerable, have created an explosion in the sort of disorder that is "low-level" unless it happens to you (they have made sure that it can never happen to them), giving them the excuse to demand and enact ever-more-draconian curtailments on the liberties of Her Majesty's free subjects.
As for the suggestion that too many people are being sent to prison (mostly by those uncouth non-London, or at least non-Islington, types on Magistrates' Benches), Mark Dixie has been found guilty of the horrific murder of Sally-Anne Bowman even though he had no fewer than 16 previous convinctions for sexual offences. Yet he was at liberty. How did that happen?
It happened because They have made sure that these things can never happen to Them.
And to hell with the rest of us.
