Rejected petition Increased Police Presence In Coventry City Center

More details

Due to the increase in knife crime in our city center I believe the police force should increase their presence during the weekends within the city center. Keeping the public safe is their responsibility and it is not happening, stop and search powers should be better used by the police force to prevent and deter knife crime.

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

This is an operational matter for the local police in this area.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
