• Protect the public from terrorist attack
• Cut crime, especially violent, drug and alcohol-related crime
• Strengthen our borders, fast track asylum decisions, ensure and enforce compliance with our immigration laws, and boost Britain's economy
• Safeguard people's identity and the privileges of citizenship
• Work with our partners to build an efficient, effective and proportionate criminal justice system
