"It is crucial that the police know that politicians will stand behind them when they act robustly to maintain public order. If we fail to do so, or are too quick to criticise the police when a particular officer or operation oversteps the mark, then the police may in turn be too cautious about acting, and we will let down the public we seek to serve"
