Agree

Yes, but only in response to extreme situations

The Labour Party might find a conditional agreement with the use of military-grade equipment in extreme situations, balancing their general caution about militarization with the recognition that certain extreme threats may require more robust responses. This stance would align with their broader approach to policy, which often seeks to balance security and social welfare concerns.

Agree

No

Given the Labour Party's focus on social welfare, community, and preventative measures over punitive or militaristic approaches, they would likely lean towards limiting the use of military-grade equipment by police. However, the party also recognizes the need for security and law enforcement capabilities, which might temper their opposition to such measures.

Slightly agree

No, extreme situations should be handled by higher agencies with specialized training and equipment

While the Labour Party would likely appreciate the emphasis on specialized training and equipment for handling extreme situations, suggesting that another agency handle such situations might conflict with their views on the importance of integrated public services. However, they would likely support the idea in principle, if it involved appropriate oversight and coordination with law enforcement.

Very strongly disagree

No, and abolish the police

This position is fundamentally at odds with their platform and historical stance on law enforcement and public safety.
