Tony pledges that there will be a visible policy presence in every community. Tony will invest in community policing, to reassure residents and deter crime and anti-social behaviour. Tony says "the Government has promised to recruit an extra 20,000 officers over the next 3 years, but that won’t even replace the officers who have left since 2010, or those that will retire over the next 3 years. I will fight for a fair share of the new officers for Staffordshire, and for a real terms increase in the number of warranted officers for Staffordshire."
