Disgraceful, though perhaps not surprising given the chequered history of Sion Simon.
If Labour genuinely believe in the "bang-em-up" approach, then fine - but to go out of their way to paint the Tories as soft on crime in this way?
This sentence alone summarises everything that was wrong about the Brownites:
"We must not waste this opportunity by allowing policy to get in the way of politics."
Disgusting.
And yes, I am sure there are many hyperpartisans within the Tories too. They are equally vile.
