TIME TO CRACK DOWN ON DRUG DEALERS

MAY I just wish young Kassius a fast and full recovery  from his 
misfortune to be pricked by a needle left in a  playground by a scum bag junky.

Now if he lived on the Parkhill estate he could have  traced it back 
to the junkie and then the dealer who  sold the drugs.

For two years tenants have watched these dealers ply  their trade 
along with at least a dozen hangers on.  These people urinate  on the 
balconies, throw away their cans of lager, fast  food wrappers, 
fight, change cash and deal...all in  broad daylight.

What do the police do? They tell tenants not to worry,  they know who they are.

For two years CCTV cameras have been pointing to the  sky, that is 
when they're working.

Parkhill is now a rat infested dump with one porter, no  weekend 
collection of rubbish, parties till 4am. And  all of this is being 
watched by children aged sic to  nine.
