Sunak says Olivia Pratt-Korbel murder 'brings home' violence faced by children

Rishi Sunak said the killing of Olivia Pratt-Korbel 'brought home' the dangers faced by children.

The Prime Minister spoke about how he wants to see more people jailed in a crackdown on crime, after revealing he fears for his own children's safety. Mr Sunak said he wanted to curb crime so that “my kids and everyone else can walk around safely”.

He told reporters: "We should charge more people and reduce crime and have them in jail.” He said he remained “committed” to the Tory manifesto promise to put 20,000 more police officers on the street, and that doing so to reduce neighbourhood crime “is incredibly important to me”.
