CRIME IN LONDON

That this House recollects than on 20th January 2004 Ken Livingstone said `I would be disappointed if, by the end of rollout of the entire neighbourhood policing programme - which is going to take four years - we hadn't cut crime by 50 per cent.'; notes that crime has not fallen by this figure during the past four years; further notes Brian Paddick's excellent record on cutting crime during his two years as Metropolitan Police Borough Commander in Lambeth from 2000 to 2002; and therefore welcomes Mr Paddick's commitment to a five per cent. annual reduction in crime during each of the next four years if he is elected as the Liberal Democrat Mayor of London on 1st May 2008.
