SIR – Thanks to the Government/past governments and Bradford Council, I sincerely believe Bradford has become a ghetto.

Nobody wants to co-operate anymore with their fellow man due to the ‘ghetto’ mentallity, and the criminals and wrongdoers are having a field day with our current and on-going misfortune.

Anti-social behaviour is rife and the decent folk of this once-proud city are not being protected due to the farcical laws in this land which protect the perpetrators and not the victims.

With the further cuts soon to be introduced, all this will get worse. Our forefathers would turn in their grave!

John Bannister, Kingsdale Drive, Bradford
