2023-04-26 11:43:43 UTC - NOT_MISLEADING

20,000 additional officers have been recruited since the promise was made in 2019, so the claim made in the tweet is factually correct. https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/police-workforce-england-and-wales-30-september-2022/police-workforce-england-and-wales-30-september-2022 What happened before 2019 isn't referred to in the tweet, so isn't relevant. Debate around that belongs in the replies not as a note.
