The UK has announced large-scale policing reforms, including new investments into artificial intelligence and increased Live Facial Recognition (LFR) deployments.

The Home Office has pledged to fund 40 new LFR vans as part of a national program to expand facial recognition capabilities in town centres across England and Wales, according to a white paper published on Monday.

Oh I know it's what they want. They'll still u turn though once they loose enough in the polls after the media rip them apart. Just like every right labour try to bring in ID cards. Then after they loose the next election Reform-Tory will bring it in and the same media will wank them selves so much over it that you'd think Farage got milkshaked again.
