'SORDID SEX SITE SPARKS ACTION CALL'

This is the front page headline of this week's Observer.




It is basically an atempt by Councillor Brendan Sheil to get a gate barring access to the bottom of the King's Highway.

The sensational headline is because someone, either the Councillor or the journalist, has found the place listed on an adult web site, as a place where doggers meet.

There is no evidence that anything of the sort happens there. The information was posted on the web site approximately three years ago. This is just one person's comment on a forum, about videos being left under rocks, and a couple going there on Fridays to be watched having sex.

The police are quoted as saying that they have had no complaints from the public.

A gate may well stop people driving up there and fly tipping, it may well also deter the travellers from setting up camp.

Using sensational headlines, with no other evidence than one poster on an adult forum three years ago, may well attract undesirable people to this place.

I hope the Observer and Councillor Shiel are ready to face the flack if a load of perverts and boy racers now descend on the area.
