Closed petition Tougher sentences for criminals who attack local retailers
Closed on
Local shops stay open long hours to serve the public in their communities, and staff deserve to be properly protected by the authorities. We want penalties for criminals who attack local retailers and their staff to be in line with those handed out for attacking other community workers such as nurses, policemen, fire fighters or paramedics.
