Labour “cared more about criminals than their victims” under Jeremy Corbyn, the party’s new justice chief claims today.
Steve Reed, a shadow minister under the last leader, branded the Tories “soft on crime” as he launched a bid to harden Labour ’s message on law and order.
In his first sit-down interview since Keir Starmer named him Shadow Justice Secretary, Mr Reed said Tony Blair “got this right” with the slogan “tough on crime, tough on the causes of crime” in the 1990s.
