Crime will not stop

We came to the NT in 1975.

No matter where we lived, safety and security were not an issue – until we came to Darwin in 1987.

It was then I became aware that all was not well; this was reinforced when our home was broken into in 1989.

Since then, I have watched with increasing concern as criminal behaviours, mainly youth crime, have grown to exponential proportions.

The government and opposition promise the issue will be addressed every four years during election campaigns.

After each election, promises are found to have been hollow, and the only thing happening is increased crime.

Will things be different after the August 24 2024 election?

Sadly, I think not.
