Lancashire Constabulary, Police England and Wales Police and Crime Commissioner elections, 2012
Lancashire Constabulary
Afzal Anwar, a barrister, is the Liberal Democrat candidate. My name is Afzal Anwar. I was born in Nelson, where I live and work as a barrister. I’m married with children and was the Liberal Democrat candidate in Pendle in the last election. I’ve worked in the criminal justice system for ten years. As a lawyer I’ve seen all sides while in court. This is not about politics – I will resist all attempts to bring politics into policing. It’s about making everywhere in Lancashire a safer and better place.
Cllr Tim Ashton is the Conservative candidate. As a local resident, I know how important it is that we have the best Police Force to serve Lancashire. As a victim of crime myself, I know what a good job the police do already. However it is vital that residents in communities right across Lancashire have a say in policing priorities. I will make sure that this happens.
Cllr Robert Drobny is the UKIP candidate. Gangs on street corners, robberies and burglaries up, police officers attacked in the line of duty. This is the reality of crime on our city streets, a reality that the people of Lancashire should not have to put up with. I believe that enough is enough and that we have to challenge those who commit crime head on, with tough policing and even tougher sentencing.
Cllr Clive Grunshaw is the Labour candidate. My aim in standing for Lancashire Police and Crime Commissioner is to ensure that Lancashire Police are accessible and deliver the protection, security and service that the people of Lancashire want and deserve.
