Lower the pension age for ambulance service workers under the NHS scheme to 60, in line with the Police and Firefighters. Ambulance staff have the stresses and face the same dangers as police and fire fighters. They do not have the privilege of lower pension ages despite being front line workers. We believe it is the duty of Parliamentarians to bring ALL emergency service staff in line regarding pensions and pay more widely. We rely on all of these people in times of accident, major incidents and all manner of health and urgent needs.

Only reduce sentence for early admission of guilt if given at police interview

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 19 February 2026

Abolish the reduction of a defendant's sentence for entering a guilty plea, if they did not admit their guilt at police interview or equivalent. Currently a defendant can wait to see if police will have enough evidence to convict before they admit guilt. We think this is immoral. Abolish a person's reward of a reduced sentence unless their admission of guilt is given at police interview or equivalent. Currently criminals have the power to deny guilt or remain silent until evidence is irrefutable, then they can enter a guilty plea and reduce their sentence. We believe this removes all morality and remorse and lets the criminal strategically decide when to enter a guilty plea to best benefit them. Build prisons if there is no room stop rewarding them.

Introduce Independent Auditing of Police Complaints in England and Wales

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 16 February 2026

There is no routine, systematic and independent audit of police complaints. Around 85–90% are handled by the forces complained about, while only a small fraction reach the IOPC. No regular oversight exists for everyday complaints which are not regularly audited, raising concerns about transparency and trust. Even when complaints identify serious failings or misconduct, police forces still decide whether cases are referred for independent oversight. Last year around 95,000 complaints were made only 7% crossed the IOPC's desk with the organisation being complained about effectively deciding if it should be scrutinised.

Require police officers to wear body cameras during health-related detentions

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 15 February 2026

The police regularly attend health crises and assist with admissions in hospitals across the country. People may be detained for mental health reasons while also having serious physical health conditions. Body cameras are not always activated, which may leave gaps in accountability and protection. We call on the Government to mandate all police officers to wear body cameras for all health-related detentions, including hospital admissions, to protect families, NHS staff and officers. Recordings could improve transparency, support complaints investigations and promote safer, more empathetic responses. National guidance should ensure consistent use, training and oversight relating to body cameras across forces.

Bring more policing to our street with visible police petrols, crime prevention

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 14 February 2026

We urge the Government to increase funding for visible neighbourhood policing, strengthen deterrents for repeat and violent offenders, support targeted burglary prevention. Our community feels unsafe after escalating break-ins and violence. Immediate action is needed to restore safety and confidence We want the Government and Parliament (MP) to act because crime in our area has escalated to a dangerous level. Frequent burglaries and a recent violent break-in have left residents fearful in their own homes. Families and elderly neighbours feel especially vulnerable. Without stronger policing, prevention, and deterrence, offenders will grow bolder. Urgent action is needed to restore safety, confidence, and trust in the justice system.

Ban Police sharing footage obtained by police, for commercial purposes

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 4 February 2026

We want police forces to be banned from sharing recorded footage such as bodycam footage, with companies which use it for commercial gain. We believe that such footage should only be used and shared for law enforcement. I want the Government to restrict UK police forces from releasing bodycam footage to companies for commercial gain. For example, a police force recently released footage to an entertainment streaming platform which was used to produce a documentary, which in my view does raise some concerns over potential privacy infringement and exploitation. Footage should only be used for law enforcement purposes, ensuring transparency and protecting individuals' rights.

Scrap the idea of a Police Licence to Practise

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 24 January 2026

Scrap the idea of a Police Licence to Practise. We do not think it would solve the issues that police are currently facing. We believe there is no realistic possible way to implement this to have a positive impact on policing. Police Officers hold a warrant card which confirms their legal authority. Officers have already undergone basic training, tutor periods and some have completed degrees as well as already doing yearly reaccreditations for skills that they have obtained. We think all the license will do is cause a higher wastage of police funding as you'd have to pay people to create and monitor it.

Increase police funding to tackle organised house robberies

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 23 January 2026

We want the Government to increase police funding to give them more capacity to prioritise and take decisive action against organised house robbery gangs, improve response times and investigations, increase policing in high-risk areas, and take tougher action against repeat offenders. We are concerned about house robberies, many incidents are widely shared on social media, and in too many cases, victims may receive little or no follow-up from police. We believe this lack of effective action allows organised gangs to operate repeatedly, leaving residents feeling unsafe and unprotected in their own homes.

Mandate enforceable standards and timeframes for police investigations

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 14 January 2026

We call on the Government to introduce a statutory right to a timely and effective police investigation for victims of crime, including enforceable standards, defined timeframes, and accountability where those standards are not met. Victims of crime in England and Wales can experience delayed or ineffective investigations, including missed evidence or closure without proper inquiry. There is no statutory mechanism enabling victims to require compliance with investigative standards or timeframes. Concerns are generally addressed retrospectively through complaints or oversight processes rather than through enforceable rights at the point of failure.

End Police self investigation. Replace the police complaints system

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 6 January 2026

Create an independent task force to handle all police complaints. The police must not receive or allocate complaints against themselves. Independent rulings for further investigation must be binding and the police must not be allowed to say no. It is time for full transparency and public trust. The current system allows suppression because police "mark their own homework" by allocating complaints themselves. The "Right to Review" only looks at process, not the complaint. Even if an adjudicator recommends action, police can currently ignore it. We need an independent body with the final, binding word to ensure accountability and justice. Police must not be allowed to gatekeep justice. Public trust requires a system that is genuinely external, transparent, and beyond police control.

Have police control the use of E-Scooters in public areas.

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 3 January 2026

Make the use of E-Scooters in public areas illegal and have police do more to protect the public from them being used on footpaths and roads. My grandmother was knocked down and hurt by someone riding an e-scooter on the footpath.
