Today parliament voted on a new offence of ‘criminal exploitation of children’ that would have sent adults who involve children in crime to prison for 13 years. The Tories voted AGAINST it. Under the Tories, criminals have never had it so good.
Adults who involve children in criminal enterprise should go to prison for 14 years. Today, parliament will vote on my amendment that gives children the protection they need. This is a critical test for government: are they serious about child safety? https://t.co/62F6X16UL2

There's a dark side to party drugs. Last year 128 children in Brighton were identified as being victims of Child Criminal Exploitation ⚠️ Reports are low. Sadly, this means that the true figure is much higher. For more ℹ️ visit 📲 https://t.co/u28cFJ99i3

Studies have shown that the more disconnected a young person is from their school, family and friends. The higher the chances are of them becoming victims of Child Criminal Exploitation (CCE) ⚠️

A supply chain “mistake”’has led some Spice (SCRA) to be sold as MDMA. Sometimes not even the dealers know what they’re really handling. How can you? #TestIt

So many of the young victims that fall into the world of Child Criminal Exploitation (CCE) are misidentified as being older, and misunderstood as being in control of the situation ⚠️ For more information, please visit our website 📲 https://t.co/u28cFJ99i3

A survey found that 96% of people that took part would see children and teens under the age of 18 as victims if they were dealing drugs ⚠️ It is imperative that we see beyond the fake image portrayed by these young victims. For more ℹ️ 📲 https://t.co/u28cFJ99i3

As a result of drug 'orders', children and teens are subjected to fear, intimidation and violence. For most victims, the way out is through organisations like 'Front Door For Families'. A service provided by @brightonhovecc For more ℹ️📲 https://t.co/u28cFJ99i3

Children who are exploited are traumatised victims, not criminals. Brilliant film highlighting the toll on mental health for both children and parents exploitation brings.
#mentalhealth #MentalHealthAwareness #MentalHealthMatters #CountyLines #KnifeCrime #CCE "Caught" - By PC 1942. My own non-official film about how some aspects of child criminal exploitation affects the mental health of children and their families.
