SUBSIM Radio Room Forums - View Single Post - A question about the surveillance in England

A Danish Political party want a lot more cameras in public areas-they say it would prevent crime and they mentioned England as a very good example

They said crime had decreased in these areas where there was surveillance

Is it true?

I seem to recall an article saying that some type of crime hadn't was not diminished.

Even a FB-friend had posted a story about this and even he are arguing for the same reason-lower crime in England because of more surveillance.

What is the truth here ?
