Michael Tomlinson welcomes the news that crime in Dorset is down by 16% and is at its lowest level nationwide.  Michael works as a lawyer locally in Dorset and has seen the justice system first hand.

Michael said, "This is excellent news for residents in Mid Dorset and North Poole, as people can feel safe on the streets.  Under the last government, the police became bogged down in too much paperwork.  Now crime is down 10% nationally, and in Dorset it is down a massive 16%.  The police are doing an excellent job and i will continue to do all that I can to support them in their number one target: cutting crime."
