You can't protect people on the cheap. 21,500 police gone. 6,000 PCSOs gone. Youth centres shut. Youth workers sacked.

Not to mention the social housing wardens who patrolled estates. They had their ear to the ground and gained respect in the community at the same time as upholding good behaviour. Now all gone.

Was telling my great nephew that, when I was young in Govan, his local park, Elder Park had tended flower beds and bowling green, plus manned tennis courts, with Park Wardens keeping an eye on things. All gone and this beautiful jewel is now just a playground for junkies!

-
I remember the park wardens as a kid, we were often confronted by them if we had failed to dismount our bicycles. Nowadays you get idiots racing through parks on motorbikes (with no helmets on).
-
We weren't allowed to play football!? In the only park in Govan!? The only green place to play safely!? And had to watch out for the 'Parkie' before legging it! Never stopped us tho!
And eventually they relented an had designated football areas! Happy Days! 
-
We used to call them Parkies now I remember
Our Head “parky” had a rent free house within the park which came with the job. Council demolished it years ago after it fell into disrepair. -
That's right! A bit like the old school janitors!

How long will it take for you to admit it is morally wrong to back an illegally won advisory referendum?!

Absolute disgrace it had taken this long. Now they can add that the cuts to youth provision has also contributed to an increase in knife crime

Man you need to table a GE motion

Our friends at
@TheIndGroup would prop up the tories. They're all for change apparently...
-
By change they mean make the UK in a even worst state than what the
#tories are doing to it now.

Worth noting that Labour voted against £970m additional police funding, proposed by the Conservatives, just a few months ago. Not that Labour are hypocrites, of course.

If kids are used as mules n they carry weapons they will then all carry weapons to protect themselves that's how i see it anyway and how i grew up knowing it to be, they are gonna jack you and take your stuff because they have a blade and you don't

You are entirely correct and this has been known for decades, the Tories and mainstream news demonises young people, yet a lot of them are carrying knives because they are terrorfied for their lives. A lot have lost friends, this isn't news for them, it's real and a living hell.
-
yep there is no choice, actually there is, we stop going outside, like i have, only so many times you can fight before you get fed up with doing it
-
One of the reasons I'm afraid to go out is I was constantly being beaten up, and was nearly killed in 2012, had my head smashed against a wall nearly 20 times. Was still dizzy until 5 months later.
-
Yeah same thing here been jumped a lot of times 11 people once, 7 another and various other events i think even my exes family may have done it as well as i woke up drunk in am ambulance, so many like us now it's identical to hikikomori culture in Japan, maybe they can help us

ಲೋಡಿಂಗ್ ಸಮಯ ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ತೆಗೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತಿರುವಂತೆನಿಸುತ್ತದೆ.
Twitter ಸಾಮರ್ಥ್ಯ ಮೀರಿರಬಹುದು ಅಥವಾ ಕ್ಷಣಿಕವಾದ ತೊಂದರೆಯನ್ನು ಅನುಭವಿಸುತ್ತಿರಬಹುದು. ಮತ್ತೆ ಪ್ರಯತ್ನಿಸಿ ಅಥವಾ ಹೆಚ್ಚಿನ ಮಾಹಿತಿಗೆ Twitter ಸ್ಥಿತಿಗೆ ಭೇಟಿ ನೀಡಿ.
