"Arresting the source of crime in London: stress in society"

Dr Geoffrey Clements presents five-point plan to Sir John Stevens

Following the presentation Dr Geoffrey Clements and Sir John Stevens will be available for press photos at 5.15pm at the entrance to New Scotland Yard

"In the past 50 years, crime in the UK has risen decade after decade. Despite electoral promises by all of the old parties, crime is higher when each government leaves office than when they start. In the context of the London elections, how can we have confidence in the promises of parties with such a record of repeated failure, and when they are not offering any new formula to reduce crime?

"The Natural Law Party offers a scientific and reliable method to combat crime at its source: the accumulation of stress in the life of the individual and society. We are happy to offer to the Metropolitan Police Commissioner our five-point plan to reduce crime by 50% by 2004 – within the first four-year term of the Mayor and the Assembly for London. In common with all of the policies and programmes of the Natural Law Party, our programme to arrest the source of crime is reliable and based on scientific principles. It is backed up by dozens of research studies. We will be pleased to work with the Metropolitan Police Force in implementing this programme to reduce crime in London."
