Agree

Yes, replace police with unarmed community based responders for non-violent calls

Centre-left ideology is generally supportive of the idea of replacing police with unarmed community-based responders for non-violent calls. This approach aims to reduce the potential for violence and improve community relations by having trained professionals handle situations that do not require armed intervention. Examples include the CAHOOTS program in Eugene, Oregon, which has been praised by centre-left politicians and activists.

Slightly disagree

No, increase funding and training for police departments in higher crime rate communities

While the centre-left may agree with the need for better training and resources for police departments in higher crime rate communities, they generally prioritize addressing social issues through community-based programs. However, some centre-left politicians may support a combination of increased funding for police and social programs to address crime and improve community relations.

Disagree

No

Centre-left ideology typically disagrees with maintaining or increasing funding for police departments without addressing social issues. They believe that investing in social programs can help address the root causes of crime and improve community relations.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and abolish the police

Abolishing the police is a more radical position that is not generally supported by the centre-left. While the centre-left may advocate for redirecting some funding from police departments to social programs, they typically do not call for the complete abolition of the police. This position is more aligned with far-left ideologies.
