· community-based Officers in local Police Houses,

· zero tolerance of anti-social behaviour;

priorities;
· but no soft treatment of Police misdemeanours,
which strong leadership and effective supervision
will help to keep at a low level.
I want Essex police to be trusted by the public and
re-focus on the side of the householder and victims.
No one should be fearful of the police but those
engaged in criminal or anti social activity must learn
they deserve no favours or sympathy and police
budgets would be adjusted accordingly.
