Police officers

Early day motion 1367, tabled 2 June 2025 by Tim Farron (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 42 members.

That this House recognises the tireless work of police officers around the UK; praises the selfless service of police officers’ to their communities and their country in daily acts of unseen work, often in dangerous situations; notes in particular the fantastic work of Cumbria Constabulary in rural, remote communities, despite stretched resources over huge geographical distances; further notes the recent letter to The Times from six chief constables of the biggest forces in the UK and their warnings that without investment, government ambitions to reform policing, protect victims, and cut crime will fall short; recognises the worry that many officers will feel about continued uncertainty; and calls on the Government to ensure fair pay rises for police officers by reforming the Police Remuneration Review Body to make it properly independent of Government.

Signatures by party: Liberal Democrat 40, DUP 1, Green 1.
