Susan Hall, you have a lot to learn if you think that spying will engender neighbourhood togetherness

Neighbour snooping on neighbour is hardly the way to create a community spirit. Snooping has no spirit. It is motivated by lack of self-worth, rather like gossip.

Unfortunately people given carte blanche to harass their neighbours often do so with gleeful eagerness. There are a lot of little hitlers around who seize even the suggestion of "power" and run with it. That was proven in Hitler's Germany, were family member turned on family member - for the cause, the Fuehrer.

A sad day has dawned in England, the UK, when neighbours start their day positioning the chair at the lookout window, readying the binoculars. I serously doubt that any of these "recruits" will venture beyond their homes to do their dirt. Defnitely not look even slightly interested in something going on in the street. Why? Because recent news has shown just how vitriolic neighbour confrontations can be.

Of course, it is obvious that these recruited residents of self-righteousness will remain anonymous.

Don't count of anonymity any of you considering take the job. And since this plan for all out snooping will engender hostility and suspicion of everyone, don't be surprised if you get a brick through your window or your car "keyed) (scratched to smithereens.

Since when and for how long as Britain had these "Councils"? Someone clue me in. We did not need all that nonsense when I was growing up in the north of England and in Manchester particularly. Too busy dodging the bombs.

Have we learned nothing. Was World War II waged for nothing? Did our brave soldiers die for nothing?

Nothing is what the UK is becoming under the onslaught of these councils, their hitlers, and their masters at Westminster.
