SIR: I refer to the recent letter from worried resident about Wolfenden Street.
It seems the police, and the council will not take action against the culprits, because they are afraid the yobs may riot.
Are we too assume that mob rule is being allowed to take over from the authorities and, run this town to their tune whilst old and vulnerable residents are scared out of their wits? What about the new laws that have recently been made to protect the public, from what these residents are suffering?
J H, Boardman Street resident
