There is anti social behaviour and anti social behaviour.
I'm all for stopping youths fighting in the street. I'm also all for
stopping the state interfering with people who are not committing any
offence or the state interfering with those whose attitudes some

complains.
And just how anti social was the Blair's banning of all their
neighbours so they could have a fish supper with their pal George?
