The boss of Jaguar Land Rover has called on ministers to increase spending on policing to prevent car thefts rather than making tax cuts, after the Range Rover maker was hit by a wave of thefts of its luxury vehicles.
Adrian Mardell, the British carmaker’s chief executive, said: “I would rather funds be put towards this rather than tax cuts next year. This is important to so many people. It goes to the fabric of the society we’re in. We’ve got to sort this out.”
