It is about time the Police spread this to the whole of the Borough. We get large groups congregating in Rhyddings Park Oswaldtwistle (30-40 is common) in the evening especially at weekend. They damage the kiddies play area and smash beer bottles etc.
Where are the Police?
Oh yes they had an operation on teenage drinking on the streets of Oswaldtwistle. They targeted these groups drinking on the street and cured the problem according to Inspector Platt at the Area Council Meeting.
What a load of cobblers. All they did was move them into the park so they can cause damage where no one can see it happening. Report it to the polics and what happens? Nothing.
Thank you Inspector Platt for moving not curing the problem.

Well done to the police who attended these incedents. I don't care if they raise enough revenue from nicking scrotes like these, that it becomes another form of taxation. The law is there, let's see it administered more. It shouldn't be a case of three strikes and you're out; an offence is just that, so nail 'em at the first misdemeanor.
I think the police force has become more demoralised because when they have done the leg-work and nailed the criminals, the bleeding heart judiciary & magistrates dish out inadequate sentences.

Does anyone else find it suspicious that this initiative has kicked in a couple of weeks before an election? Oh, yes Mr Blair your policing policies do work and of course we're happy to vote for you!!!!!!!!
I'm confused. So tickets/fines are issued. Sounds great in theory. They don't pay. It goes to court for non-payement of fines. They are ordered to pay £1/week from their income.
How long before these yobs stop being frightened of this new initiaive, and start using the fines to light their spliffs?

And just before the end of the financial year a big push on drinking and driving, put some money in the coffers.
You can bet that after the election who ever wins you won't see it happen again until the next one. Why only peel ward? doesn't it happen else where? or have the mighty policys of succesive goverment initiatives cured crime in all other areas of Hyndburn?

If you dont pay you get a criminal conviction and a larger fine. If you do within 28 days you dont get a conviction. Tickets have been given out since November but now they are for under 16's as well [parents have to pay]. It has been getting tighter for over 2 years now so no its nothing to do with the election as its Lancs Constabulary doing it. I understand one individual was told if he came back he's get another ticket making that £160 for a nights yobery. I cant speak for Ossy. Maybe they will follow suit?
All we need now is a Labour Council to enforce a Zero Tolerance approach [which I have been trying to do anyway] and Street Wardens teams to tackle the Environmental Issues in as plain and effective manner as the yobs and junkies
dont be so bl...y political any council that gets in wants to lay the law down, lets get behind them who get behind the people that put them there. all politicians are the same give them an inch they take a mile.
yes i agree with your point but to be so pollitically biased on a friendly site like accy web will not get you the votes your after.

A good thing in theory, but if the police move them on, won't they just go somewhere else. The coppice bowling green is clear of idiots, and so is Arden hall, but i can assure you there are groups of them down my backstreet drinking at all hours of the weekend!!. It's pretty awfull to see teenagers walking the streets with cans of super strength on a saturday afternoon.
Just a question, what if their parents can`t afford to pay? In my youth if the police had brought me back to my house my dad ( or even worse my mum) would have given me a right pasting. I presume the parents of these odious cretins don`t give a toss what their little darlings are up to
This is very encouraging and for every scrote that is dealt with gets a cheer from me. I thought that was excellent making him walk home in the early hours they should have taken his shoes off him before setting him free.
I wouldn't say that Peel Ward has been a no-go area for drunken yobs for 12 months but it is quieter at weekends. As they are still able to purchase alcohol at the Off Licence not 200 yards from your home and very annoyingly Netto who don't give a toss, it's a question of where to do the drinking, the favourites after Arden Hall and the Coppice seem to be back streets and Oakhill Park so its a case of being moved on and not stopping the source, but it's a start.

Maybe these yobs have moved on to the Marsden Street area......Factory bottom......my dear old mum is constantly disturbed by loud mouthed youths drinking and getting up to no good in this area.
She says that there is drug dealing and cars screeching about at 2 and 3 in the morning......a Beat bobby giving out fines would be welcome by her.
