A Gloucestershire village was "on lockdown" today following a police incident.
Every single business was closed in Parkend after an incident involving a large group of people on Christmas Day.How puzzling!
In a post on Facebook the landlord of the Fountain Inn said: "Absolutely gutted to announce that, on police advice, we've had to cancel our live music tomorrow (Boxing Day) and will be closed completely in the evening. It's not a decision we've taken lightly, as we know so many of you were really looking forward to it. Several establishments have had trouble with a large group staying locally and police attended seven times last night. Thankfully we didn't have any problems here, but we'd like it to stay that way.
"Merry Christmas one and all, and apologies once again for letting you all down."What did the police have to say about a small village's businesses feeling so unsafe they felt they had to close over Christmas?
Police confirmed they had attended an incident in the village but were unable to give more information at this stage. It is believed it involved a large group who were staying in the village.Hmmm, a picture is starting to form....
Shops and pubs in a second Gloucestershire town closed their doors yesterday evening after reports of disorder involving a large group of people. In Lydney, Bargain Booze and several pubs including The Swan Hotel, the British Legion and the Greyhound closed their doors mid afternoon.It sounds like this 'large group' have, how shall I put it, travelled....
Local councillor Alan Preest who sits on the town, district and county council for Lydney said he had never seen a situation like this before.Get used to seeing it more and more, until the police are instructed to put law-abiding, taxpaying citizens above their favoured identity groups, Alan.
He said: "Where were the police and why wasn't this contained. We need an inquiry to find out what happened here."Sadly, we don't. We all know what happened here, even if the police seem reluctant to give this a name.
You might think that this - a small UK village paralysed by fear - would be a concern of a supposedly Tory government. But according to the news this morning, you'd be wrong. Apparently the threat that the finest minds have been put to quell is.... rogue landlords.
Mind how you go, now.

Incidentally on the rogue landlords issue, I'll bet they'll never release (or indeed compile) a list of the ethnic background of any such people exposed......
Am I the only one thinks for years society has been going to shit, but in the last year or so the rate at which this is happening is getting exponentially quicker?
Police will happily arrest you for sending what some dumb wet flannel has deemed as an "offensive" tweet, but a small town gets vandalised and the police won't comment on it?!?
Rogue landlords? There are already too many laws restricting what I may pay a landlord to rent - minimum bedroom size being a recent one. The rogues exist as people want to pay to live in an "illegal" rental rather than rough-sleeping.
How to fix? Allow people to rent & live in whatever they choose is best they can find. Gov't should stop interfering, they restrict supply and increase rents.

Pikeys: only solution, short of genocide, is stop pandering to them, enforce the law on all equally - vehicle registration, tax, insurance, MOT, RTA & Construction & Use would be a good start.

Oh, I have no doubt whatsoever on that!

You aren't. Buckle up for 2018, it'll be a bumpy ride!

You mean, go back to Peelian principles? Hmmmm. It'll never catch on.
