Roger leads an exceptional Police and Fire Service, alongside the Chief Constable and Chief Fire Officer for Essex. They are dedicated to keeping the great county of Essex safe.

Roger and I have worked together for many years on local policing, increasing funding not just across Essex but also in Witham through the Safer Streets Fund, which led to improvements in street lighting, CCTV, community engagement, and resources in Witham Town Centre.

We discussed the need for greater focus from the Government on crime prevention, rather than the centralisation of policing, which would mean that policing decisions for Essex are taken in Westminster by politicians rather than reflecting the needs of the local community.

The Conservative Party has always been committed to putting public and community safety first and ensuring our communities are protected from the causes of crime.
