Chris Huhne says Labour and Conservatives are both guilty of peddling fear on crime
“Labour has been just as guilty as the Tories of posturing on penalties and peddling fear,” said the Liberal Democrat Shadow Home Secretary, Chris Huhne.
Commenting on Gordon Brown’s speech on crime and anti-social behaviour, Chris Huhne said:
“Labour has been just as guilty as the Tories of posturing on penalties and peddling fear.
“Labour and the Conservatives have indulged in a sentencing arms race in a desperate attempt to look tough, rather than back more police officers which is the best way to cut crime.”
