New Yob 'Government measures'.
The latest idea from Gordon Brown is that anyone getting an ASBO will be named and shamed on a government website and locally distributed leaflets,That'll get 'em quaking in their boots.
What next town criers denouncing them?
Could we not have a trial reintroduction of the town stocks,I'll provide the rotting fruit and veg.

How come they can be named and shamed when, just a few months ago the Police couldn't display a picture of an escaped criminal because of 'human rights?'
I can't find the thread but I'm sure we've discussed it sometime.

Re: New Yob 'Government measures'.
I agree cashman,it's basically Politicians don't live in the real world.They are insulated from what many people experience e.g muggings,vandalism and just plain yob behaviour.

That's a thought, it must be difficult to advertise now all the telephone kiosks have gone.

Re: New Yob 'Government measures'.
And then the yobs will be trying harder to get on the list, being displayed on the web will be like a yob trophy.

Re: New Yob 'Government measures'.
Suprised they havent set up hug n cuddle clinics for the yobs. Got to agree that their mentality will have them seeing it as a badge of honour. As for bringing back the stocks then let their victims have the first shot with what they deem suitable for the actions they suffered.
If polititions dont get their heads out of the clouds in cloud cuckoo land then we could end up with a society along the Mad Max movies lines.

Re: New Yob 'Government measures'.
Well the first one to be named and shamed and given an ASBO should be one Gordon Brown from Fife, he really has screwed the British people to the floor, then picked their pockets to make sure he's got every last cent, the cretin ![Mad](http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/images/accysmilies/mad.gif)

He would find a way out of it on human rights grounds. He wouldnt get far as all his sins will be on a chain around his ankle like in Scrooge.

Re: New Yob 'Government measures'.
no need to fuss about this latest idea because next year cameron will have us hugging the yobs.
this could work if we are allowed to hug them around the throat very tightly ![Smilie](http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif)

Re: New Yob 'Government measures'.
Some of us are old enough to remember when the Accy Observer used to publish a full listing of the previous week's magistrates' courts appearances. That used to be naming and shaming. Alas, no more.
