Nothing's safe these days. Agreed, we could do with a return to the park warden but, as has been discussed on the corporal punishment thread, he would have very little powers these days and would probably be beaten up if he dared to challenge anyone.

The appalling state of the parks, and the withholding of funding that should be used to maintain them, as nothing to do with vandalism. It's about the use of funds, and poor management.
They gave us flower towers, call us a 'Floral Market Town', yet our parks, once filled with beautiful displays of bedding plants, raised by the park's own gardening department, are now bare of flowers except for the odd Dandelion.
