Sir Keir Starmer has pledged to make drink spiking a specific criminal offense, demanding coordinated action between police and hospitality sectors to combat violence against women and girls.
Labour's commitment includes training thousands in the night-time economy by next spring to proactively prevent drink spiking, support victims, and gather evidence for law enforcement.
Starmer reaffirmed his promise to create a new offense for spiking, proudly declaring his commitment following the Labour manifesto, intensifying calls for protective measures.
Despite no specifics in the King's Speech regarding anti-spiking legislation timeline, the growing urgency hints at government's intent to address violence against women.
