On September 17, 1994, British Prime Minister John Major declared war on a "rogue culture"
On this day, 31 years ago, September 17, 1994 (August 12, 1994 in the lunar calendar), British Prime Minister John Major declared war on the "rogue culture." On September 17, 1994, Major called on the court to take tough action against violators. It also promised a blitz on petty crime to destroy Britain's "rogue culture". "They can be punished or put in prison," he said. He asked the court to send a "clear and unmistakable message": Those who break the law will be punished and victims will be supported. He also advised people not to use admonishing methods too much. Major promised to propose a large number of detailed measures, including a three-year anti-drug trafficking plan, operations to reduce street drunkenness, and strengthening prison management. Major used eye-catching language, calling for harsher prison terms for both felonies and minor crimes, and said the UK would introduce an identity card system. He also called for "a national cooperation" to unite the forces of special police, municipal councils, local courts, schools and communities to "fight criminals." Major said the public wants the government to crack down on those who turn the streets into places of fear. People are afraid to go to the city center because of fear. People are worried about their safety. He called for a national campaign to "crack down on rogue culture", calling on teachers and teachers to respect teachers, and for city councils to use more of their power to eradicate alcohol abuse in public places. "We can all show through our own attitudes and role models that we condemn and reject rudeness, vandalism and crime, and we are indignant at thoughtless and doodling 'artists' who mess up public places," Major said. We forgive too much about crime, and we often allow young people to develop various bad habits by forgiving and just admonishing. Taking measures early may put them on the right path." However, the most striking thing was Major's call for the courts to use the powers granted to them by the government. He said it would be meaningless to just catch the criminal without giving him a sentence that "would correct them and deter other criminals." Mei Deng said that more funds will be allocated for guidance in schools to prevent students from taking drugs, and school supervisors will be required to make greater efforts to stop abuse of students. He promised a blitz against drug abuse in prisons. "I want people who come out of prison to turn over a new leaf, rather than degenerate into a group of drug addicts," he said.
