Speaking in the House of Commons, Hull North MP Diana Johnson asked how many new police officers will be seen in Hull - and when.

This follow the announcement from the new Prime Minister of funding for 20,000 more police officers nationally.

The Tory/ Lib Dem Coalition had cut 21,000 police since 2010, leading to a surge of crime and anti-social behaviour in Hull and around the country.
