00:00 We're having enough problem in New Ashgreen with local footfall, trying to
00:06 increase it. It is not helped when there's so much antisocial behavior and
00:11 people get warned off. They don't want to come to an area that is known for its
00:16 antisocial behavior. I've been asked by the local landlords to open and start
00:23 running a market here at the weekends. Now I'm sorry but I'm not prepared to do
00:28 so until this antisocial behavior is addressed and dealt with because I do
00:32 not want my vendors or customers having to listen to the abusive language, being
00:40 cycled at, and having wheelies done in front of them and intimidating
00:45 and terrorizing people which are mostly our customers tend to be of an older age
00:51 variety.
