Crime Levels: Statements.
People are afraid to report crime and live in fear of retaliation for doing so, which discourages many. There should be severe penalties for anyone who victimises another simply because he or she has reported crime. I hope the Minister will find a way to tackle the problem of under age drinking which requires a holistic approach. In ten or 20 years the health effects of the amount of drink now being consumed will be appalling. Drink in public places has been banished by by-law.
