    The only real policy Labour have now is to turn the UK into a giant panopticon.

    He set out a vision for a national rollout of “police hubs” with their own neighbourhood crime prevention teams to crack down on antisocial behaviour.

    A “next generation neighbourhood watch” using technology including video doorbells and WhatsApp groups would be tasked with bringing people together to share information to tackle crime.

      That's the thing about a police state: petty crime virtually disappears.

      Of course the powerful are free to commit any crime they wish, but hey. No more bicycle thieves! They're all in camps being taught how to operate machine lathes. Surely this is worth giving up your civil rights for.
