Congratulations to Inspector Gough of Newhaven Police for naming, shaming and showing the faces of the Crossley brothers who terrorised their neighbours in the town.

Who does Dr Peter Squires think he is to say it overrules young peoples' right to privacy to be shown up in this way?

What about the privacy of the population as a whole who have had their lives made a misery and turned upside down by this type of hoodlum all over the country?

Has he ever been at the receiving end of the very frightening behavior that can be dished out? My husband and I have, for nine long months - until I felt like taking an overdose of insulin and my husband had a heart attack. He is still suffering the effects of that after three years.

No, Dr Squires, these people have no rights at all, they forfeited them long ago.

I don't know what the answer is to the problem. Evicting the perpetrators is just moving the problem to another area. I really don't think the Army is the answer, unless they can go into a regiment which is run on the same style as Colchester, the forces prison.

My son was an instructor at an Army foundation college near Harrogate and he said he was not allowed to shout at the boys any more.

Now to what I think the cause is. Additives to food and exhaust fumes being breathed in most of the day. It must do something to the brain. I am glad I won't be around too many more years to see what things will be like in about 25 years time.
