BCP have really let the ball drop. Noted by a national newspaper as one of the most corrupt councils in Britain and rebuked by the Government over poor money management, bickering and incompetence. Just walk through Bournemouth Gardens, the square and up or down different streets of the square. There are so many people begging, many of whom are sadly addicted to substances or drink. Some can be intimidating, even if they do not know it, especially to the elderly or women on their own. Crime has dramatically increased. Is there a week where murder is not reported in the national papers or another tragic rape? Where are the police? Looking for people who may or may not be praying silently in their heads in an abortion zone? Really, is this a priority whilst more people are physically abused, harassed, intimidated, sexually assaulted or even killed on a night out? Every year people are sexually assaulted or even rapped in the sea by Bournemouth Pier in the daytime, during summer, yet where are the police? Do not the CCTV cameras work?
