Police and Crime Commissioner for Hampshire and the Isle of Wight, Donna Jones, has launched a consultation on her draft ‘More Police, Safer Streets’ plan, with local residents asked to give their feedback via the online survey.
The key priorities identified in the plan include 600 more police officers by 2023, improved police visibility, a zero-tolerance approach to knife crime and more customer-focused police call handling, as well as a crackdown on unauthorised encampments and a voice for rural communities.
Commissioner Jones said:
“So far almost 3,000 people have taken the survey about the policing priorities for 2021-2024 that are outlined in my Plan, which is great and I thank those who have had their say for taking the time to do so. I would very much like to hear from as many people as possible to make sure that my Plan truly is tackling the issues that are of most concern to all our communities, as well as those offences that cause the most harm.
“My vision as your Commissioner, as a parent, and as a citizen is that Hampshire and Isle of Wight are places children and elderly people can walk the streets without fear. More police means more detection and prevention, and my number one priority is to have 600 more officers by end of 2023.”
The full draft Plan is available to read and download on the website morepolicesaferstreets.com, with the public having until 14th October 2021 to express their views either through a quick online survey or by submitting more detailed comments.
We had all this a few year ago, police walking the streets, Police stations were OPEN.. The COUNCIL stopped all of it to save money and moved headquarters over to Hampshire. I tried phoning the Hampshire Police, call was answered and asked where I was, I told them Ryde, Isle of Wight, they put me through to some police station in SCOTLAND !!! Brilliant… half hour wasted . Now they going to try to re instate it all again.. where is the money going to come from, all councils saying they are broke.. !!
Why does it need a “consultation” to establish the blindigly-obvious? Unless, of course, it’s to make it look as though something is happening without actually spending any money.
is she actually for real – wasting time and money on a survey
it is simple
I know we usually disagree Isle of Wighter, but I agree 100% with you on this. Well said.
thanks digby!!
Can she investigate our judges, who give soft sentences.
Cut to the chase, women are coercing their way into top jobs to bring about a feminist agenda.
I know it’s probably not the done thing to point it out, but she’s not exactly a very good example of healthy living is she? I mean don’t we get told by the expert health advisors not to be overweight, for the good of our health? Nothing against the lady otherwise but shouldn’t she be paying a little attention to that advice and try to set a good example. People in positions of authority are not always taken that seriously if they are so very overweight.
I still have no idea why people seem to have a problem with this womens weight?? It baffles me that it always gets brought up everytime there is a story about her… get over the fact she is a larger lady and just give her normal grief about her job role. Stop always making it personal.
I’ve never seen her weight mentioned anywhere before. I hardly liked to mention it because i thought I was the first one to do so. But like it or not, people get judged by their appearance and to be this overweight does not look good for someone in the position of authority that she has. It looks sloppy and lazy and like someone who has no self control and she is probably nothing like that and it would not be the impression she would want to make, but if other people have noticed and commented on it too so I’m not the only one, it shows that she is giving a negative impression of herself by remaining overweight.
I like fat birds.
it will backfire as it isn’t thought out to well.
