A plan to bring private policing to Richmond is being opposed by one of the town’s MPs

Lib Dem Sarah Olney is voicing concern over canvassing activity to generate support for a private force.

She says she understands many people are anxious, but policing should not be reserved for those who can pay for it.

It’s been reported that residents in part of Richmond have been paying security officers to patrol their streets at certain times.
