Yes that is my next manifesto promise. Deal with crime. Yes I know everybody says it but they don't have any intention of actually doing it. Criminals and thugs are now such a large percentage of our society that the others won't crack down on them in case it costs them their vote!
A while back Richmond Council had a problem with drunks sleeping on the benches on Twickenham Green. What was their solution? They took the benches away! Brilliant! So now the drunks lay on the grass and nobody has anywhere to sit. Not the disabled, the elderly, kids or even a healthy adult out enjoying a walk and who just fancies a sit down.
Why penalise everybody because of the actions of a few? Why not deal with the problem? Thats what I mean by Deal with crime. Inconveniance the criminals and the anti-socials and make them suffer, not everybody else.
Apparantly we have a huge problem with alcohol abuse at the moment. It must be huge because every newspaper is giving almost as much space to it as they did to that other hugely important subject. A soldier called Harry actually doing his job and being a soldier. And this governments solution? Put the price up and make the other 99% of us pay more for our drink. Another great idea from the New Taxes party!
Can it really be that difficult to solve problems and sort out the minority who make up the low life of our country without punishing everybody else? I don't think so.
Here is a bird.

Hi,
Why don't they build a pub on the green then all the drunks can go sleep near the pond in Feltham and they'll be closer to home.
