Original Note:
This excludes the largest, fastest growing types of crime (fraud & computer crime). "Household crime" may be down but crime overall is up. "Having a plan" to recruit 20,000 more police officers has no effect on crime. There are only 3,500 more Police than in 2010. https://fullfact.org/news/crime-figures-fall-half-conservatives/ https://www.statista.com/topics/3793/crime-in-the-uk/ https://fullfact.org/crime/police-officer-uplift-numbers/
