Proceeding contribution from Mike Weatherley (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 13 October 2011. It occurred during Adjournment debate, Backbench debate and e-petition debate on The Riots.
The Riots
I ask this question as the chair of the all-party group on retail and business crime. A lot of retailers feel that crime against their shops is seen as a victimless crime. Does my hon. Friend agree that a lot of people who were committing these crimes felt that they were committing a victimless crime because in the past sentencing had not been robust enough?
