How on earth can they say its hard to police the pier. It's not like they have anywhere to run.

Because they have to walk taking up time

Thats wat I was thinking fella. Only a matter of time b4 somthing serious happens on one of our pier its a certainty with all the drinking and watever else. I can totaly understand why they go there because theres nowt for young youths to do. But its not the place for it at all.

That's what they are paid for though surely.

The Police have keys to open the pier at night time to patrol would that affect anglers would they throw them off.
Maybe no more night fishing

Rich parents, steal fishing tackle and anything else they can get their hands on.

There has to be a line drawn between what is just an angler out with a couple of friends enjoying a couple of cans while he fishes and what is anti-social behaviour.
Decent hard working people should not be linked in with these a-holes just because they enjoy a beer.
Also we need to recognise that people be they young or old having a few cans does not necessarily mean they are going to beat you up then go off and burgle your house.
The majority of us have all been young and drank underage, hanging out with our mates and some birds in the hope of getting some, then been confronted by some doo gooder who assumes our drinking and enjoyment will bring down society.

I'd personally ban any alcohol on the piers, it looks trashy as fk.
