Local Priorities Mobile phone theft Update

I wanted to provide an update regarding Mobile phone theft, which some members around this area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the Met Engage priority survey.

Today the 03/11/2025 in the morning I will patrol UPPER STREET in order to deter thieves from stealing mobile phones as well as reminding/educating people not to use their mobile phones whilst walking on UPPER STREET nor leaving it out on cafe/restaurant tables. AS A REMINDER PLEASE DO NOT USE YOUR MOBILE PHONE ON UPPER STREET unless you really have to and be careful of your surroundings. Preferably use your mobile phone inside shop premises.

 We are working on our brand-new strategy for how we police London and we want your help. Our New Met for London: Phase 2 strategy will guide how we deliver on behalf of Londoners over the next three years.
