Description

George Matheson interviews Home Secretary Kenneth Baker on his comments that parents should teach children moral values to stop the rise in youth crime. Also on car crime - and the need for public to take care of their possessions and for better locks. He says crime prevention is down to police and individuals and high crime level is not due to 1980s greedy mentality.
