Saw Home Office advert saying how hate crime is a crime & you should report to police. Police chiefs saying they have to concentrate on other crimes. Bottom line: we are all less safe because of government cuts to policing & other public services, oh & worse if we leave the EU.
It needs to be looked at. What sort of offences would be treated differently as a result & what would that difference in treatment look like in terms of action by police, CPS & courts? And what capacity does the CJS have to deal with it? I don’t know the answers.
