Asbos are back - but will Labour cut anti-social behaviour?
Remember Asbos? Well they are back. Labour has rebranded the infamous Anti-Social Behaviour Orders - which were scrapped by the Tories in 2014 - and announced a “a modernised version” called "respect orders", which seek to crackdown on repeat offenders. Failing to comply with the orders – set out in Labour’s election manifesto as part of the party’s promise to “return law and order to our streets” – will be a criminal offence. As well as up to two years in prison, courts could hand out unlimited fines and order those who flout the rules to carry out unpaid work or abide by a curfew, the Home Office said.
