'It’s like every other person is a criminal, but they’re not'
Levels of anti-social behaviour have dropped across Blackpool as a whole although the town centre continues to be a magnet for rowdiness, according to the latest police figures.
However, 3,076 of those incidents were recorded in the inner wards of Talbot, Bloomfield and Claremont which combined to account for 42 per cent of all anti-social behaviour in the town. Members of the council’s Climate Change and Environment Scrutiny Committee, who were presented with the annual report, said they feared the numbers suggested crime was still a big problem in the town.
