James Duddridge, Member of Parliament for Rochford and Southend East, has welcomed the Conservative-led government’s world leading website www.police.uk This website provides data maps that show crime and anti-social behaviour at a street by street level in Rochford and Southend East.
This means everyone can see exactly what crime is happening and where - right down to the level of crime on their street corner. If anyone has concerns about the crime they see or how issues are dealt with, they can raise them with the police.
James said
‘I am really pleased that the Conservative-led government has demonstrated they are serious about cutting the levels of crime and anti-social behaviour in our communities.
‘By providing crime data in an open format that anyone can access, even from their mobile, we can all hold the police to account. We can ensure they deal with the issues that actually matter to us locally not those decided by a Whitehall bureaucrat’
