The North Somerset MP said he spoke to local businesses, as well as shoppers, to discuss their concerns. “I recently met with PCC Clare Moody and her team in Portishead, where we discussed how we can improve policing in North Somerset,” he said in a statement. “Walking around the high street, we spoke to local businesses and people to hear their thoughts. “Commonly, people felt they no longer 'saw' the police on their streets, and I will be working hard with the Avon and North Somerset police team to get that back. “If you have any thoughts on how you would like policing to change in North Somerset please contact me through my website.”
