With crime in Northumberland, Tyne and Wear rising, trust in Northumbria Police reducing, and the policing element of our Council Tax having more than doubled since 2012, we need a Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) that listens to local people and police officers, gets the best out of the Force, and is robust enough to hold the Chief Constable to account.

I’m highly qualified for this role, having been legally educated, worked in criminal justice, and having an ex-police officer as a husband. I also have substantial management experience in my professional career.

As your PCC, I will:

• Get tougher on offenders by ensuring that our hardworking officers have the numbers, cell space, and resources to fight crime. I will recruit more officers, invest in crime-fighting technology, and reopen custody suites across Northumbria.
• Take a no-nonsense approach to crime. I will work with the Chief Constable to reduce common crime types including theft, anti-social behaviour, serious violence, knife crime, and violence against women and girls.
• Ensure that police time and resources are focussed on keeping our communities safe, rather than on policing social issues like spats on social media or virtue-signalling projects that fail to reduce crime.
• Boost trust in Northumbria Police by holding the Chief Constable to account, making the Police more accessible by reopening police station front desks, and giving residents and officers more opportunities to feedback to me.

I will ensure that local policing creates consequences for offending and discourages crime.

On 2nd May, join me in putting more police on our streets and making Northumbria safer by voting for me as your PCC.
