Lance Burdett: Police do make people feel safe

Greens MP Tamatha Paul has come under fire this week after comments about beat patrol police.  She said a lot of people feel less safe with the increase in police on the beat, and claimed that these officers had even been throwing away the belongings of homeless people.  Paul was also in a discussion about what steps could be taken to achieve "radical police abolition", and alternatives to the police.  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
