West Mercia's police and crime commissioner makes the claim over Wednesday's Budget.
West Mercia Police and Crime Commissioner John Campion claimed it was "baffling" that the criminal justice system was not included in the Budget
West Mercia's Conservative PCC John Campion claimed uncertainty created by Labour Chancellor Rachel Reeve's budget would mean taxpayers end up paying more to the force in the coming years. Reeves said the budget was "restoring stability to our public finances and rebuilding our public services". “There is no doubt that this uncertainty will mean higher council tax rises, paid by hard working people across West Mercia and more police officers taken from the front line keeping us safe."“I urge the chancellor to clearly set out how she proposes to fund the rise in employers’ National Insurance that will affect policing and make the investment in our courts service to reduce the backlogs," he said.
