   We have an ex headmaster in charge of our Homewatch scheme without any consultation but just so kids can be safe money was raised from various funds for an enclosure on our recreational ground, the kids still continue to play on the main road and the enclosure has been a waste of money. My point We have had the last forty years of liberalism thrust upon us which has resulted in the breakdown of almost everything respect, morals, but more importantly basic common sense, it's time for a re-think it's time for change.

   2 years ago I went to the house of a neighbour, to speak to them regarding their 2 sons, then aged 8 and 11, who had been running around our estate with a Club Hammer threatening and trying to hit my 2 children. The 8 year old ,after throwing broken glass milk bottles at me whilst I was walking up the driveway towards the house, ran inside and came out seconds later brandishing a Bread Knife above his head and shouting at me that he was going to kill me. If it hadn't been for his sister of 13 being stood next to him and grabbing the Knife as it came towards me I would not be here now to write this!!!! (Their Father was at work and their mother was asleep in bed!!!)
   I called the Police and as he was under the age of 10 nothing could be done. Social Services were sent in for a while.
   3 weeks ago the older boy physically attacked my son on his way home and told my son that he was going to get him Stabbed and our home set on fire with us in our beds. I called the Police and was told all they could do was to have a word with the Parents. My answer is no, but the Parents should be Punished aswell, as they are the ones who have Morally Neglected their children!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
