Justice Secretary Alex Chalk rejected the suggestion that the measures in the King's Speech were focused on a general election, expected next year.
The conversation comes as Prime Minister Rishi Sunak makes law and order a central pillar of today's speech, including already-announced proposals for killers convicted of the most horrific murders to expect whole life orders.Speaking to LBC's Nick Ferrari at Breakfast, Mr Chalk said: "I would respectfully disagree. You're right, there is a general election in the air, that's correct.
"It will improve public safety and public confidence by giving the police the powers they need to crack down on criminals and ensuring that those who pose the biggest threat are imprisoned for longer."The Bill creates new powers for the police to enter properties to search for and seize stolen goods - cutting red tape and empowering officers to tackle those prolific thieves who prey upon us all.
