No, Brooklyn Bridge, it's not just you. I for one would much rather have the reassurance of seeing a police car parked in plain sight and this would probably act as a deterrent, to a certain extent.

My only hope the adage Cometh the hour cometh the man may happen.

Having just joined the ranks of being a pensioner I wonder how these people look in the mirror or sleep at night when they take my council tax out of my monthly entitlement. Would like to comment more bluntly but Ladies present.

And apparently the bootfair held in Sainsbury's car park on some Sundays during the summer will also no longer be running.

I have absolutely no idea Burneside who reads/posts on this site and where they may quite literally, physically, be based. And neither do you.

I wonder if Jeremy now regrets only talking to Republican terrorists on his 'Peace Campaign' in N.Ireland. Karma's a bitch isn't it JC.

I just hope that we still get out of the EU. It's sad we are such a weak country.

@Lynne i read that letter. i thought the professor made some excellent points and his argument was evidence based. unfortunately politicians who are highly educated dismiss views of experts in their fields. publicly at least they don't display the same disdain as the two contributors on that thread. however politicians like gove and johnson have an ideological agenda to shrink the state and ...

Politicians and promises, the only thing you can be sure will definetly happen will be:- Higher salaries, year on year, for the m.p's no matter how badly the economy is doing.

@Lynne - i had politely advised the couple that cycling was not allowed on the sea wall. the bloke replied 'i didn't know that' and just cycled passed. Actually there is another cyclist on another picture who barged his way passed a large group of people as well.
