Party	Seats	Vote	Reason
Alliance For Digital Freedom And Rights	23	No	We strongly oppose this approach. We support effective policing, but zero tolerance and routinely arming all frontline officers risk undermining public trust without addressing the causes of violent crime. Prevention, community policing and targeted specialist units offer a better balance between security and civil liberties.
Left Forward	10	No	We are firmly opposed to this; more guns do not create safety but only increase the sense of insecurity and fear of crime. Furthermore, a zero-tolerance policy has already proven ineffective in the past and in other countries.
