It has finally arrived!
Further to the earlier discussions and our subsequent petition to full council, you will notice that a bin has been placed on Western Road today to try to ease the problems residents have encountered. The Council (repeatedly) rejected our requests to place a bin adjacent to the Old Market, but have placed the bin to assist residents in Upper Market Street and the top part of Brunswick Street East. This is being placed mindful of the request to not cause any further traffic movements in Lower Market Street and the lower part of Brunswick Street East onto Waterloo Street. The Council is writing to residents to confirm this today.
Despite being an area where you have to be licenced to give out flyers and leaflets, it seems that the law is being ignore. On a walk through the town we discovered that only the "Royal Hamburger" people were wearing their licences. The people in the enclosed pics weren't.
Do you think that this policy is working?

Late night drinking report Appeal rules that brewery is not liable for tenant's infringement of licensing laws
In a landmark case, judges have ruled that a brewery cannot be held responsible, and prosecuted, for the actions of its tenant — even if it holds the premises licence.
Ship street gating order news.. Many thanks for the comments posted in response to my report of Jan 09 looking at the feasibility of a Gating Order for Ship St Gardens as a response to criminal and antisocial behaviour.Those who responded and were supportive of a Gating Order were broadly in favour of option 2, rather than the recommended option 3. Option 2 does have some feasibility issues, and these are explored further in the attached document. Comments, questions and constructive criticism sought and welcomedYoursSimon Bannistera copy of the report is available on request
Do police targets fail to address anti-social behaviour? A new report suggests that the police have been forced to fixate so much on targets that they can't address everyday policing issues? When the system rewards arrests but ignores all other efforts to maintain order a police officer may have no incentive to deal with anti-social behaviour until it becomes a criminal offence. A new report from Ray Mallon, once famous for his zero-tolerance approach to policing, highlights failings in the system that have distorted priorities to the point where public confidence in the police is collapsing.

PFRA recognises need for chugger enforcementIt seems that the body responsible for the regulation of on-street charity collectors has recognised that 'Chuggers' cannot be trusted to self govern through a voluntary code. It has announced the appointment of an enforcement officer.David Lepper, Brighton Pavilion Labour and Co-operatative MP, has given a cautious welcome to the appointment by the Public Fundraising Regulatory Association (PFRA) of an officer, Nick Henry, to maintain and improve standards of chuggers – face-to-face street fundraisers - and to respond to local council and public complaints.
