Yobs making town centres no-go areas

Conservative MP Edward Leigh has claimed that drunken yobs are acting like “an occupying army” in town centres after dark, and that persistent young offenders view Asbos as a way of life. Do you feel safe to walk the streets at night? Are the government doing enough to tackle drunken thuggish behaviour, or is the problem getting worse?
