As the bells rang to signal the close of sitting day in Victoria’s parliament last week, an MP rose to his feet to plead with the Labor government to do more to combat crime in the state. “Speaker, every Victorian has the right to feel and be safe in their homes, their streets, their workplaces and their neighbourhoods,” Anthony Cianflone said.
“My constituents continue to welcome stronger criminal justice and bail reforms; a further crackdown on serious, dangerous, violent and repeat offenders; ongoing support to help Victoria police increase its powers, resources, presence and patrols across the community.”
