Labour always backs the crims

Stuff reports:

With a new trial for court bailiffs to seize cars if their owners haven’t paid fines, the Labour Party says innocent families could be left “stranded”.

The Government is trialling new technology for bailiffs to scan number plates as they search for people who have unpaid fines. They will then clamp or seize cars belonging to people with debt owed to the courts.

Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith was celebrating the new tool on Friday, telling fine dodgers: “You may soon find yourself walking home or needing a lift.”

But Labour Party justice spokesperson Duncan Webb said seizing cars without warning would have unintended consequences, harming the taxpayer and also innocent people. He called it a “sad day” for the Government.

No matter what the issue, Labour can always be relied on to back the crims over victims!
