Over recent years, certainly the last five years, we’ve seen increases in violent crime right across the country.
Truthfullness 4 / 5
Fact checked by: realitycheck
Notes
The most serious crime, yes. ‘Violent’ crime rates overall are steady, however that includes “minor assaults such as pushing and shoving” and death and injuries caused by dangerous driving. So it depends how serious the crimes Rebecca Long-Bailey is referring to.
Do you agree this deserves 4 / 5 for truthfullness?

No promises to change the rating but it will be considered.
