SIR - All my life I have been against corporal punishment - until now.

After seeing how some mentally defective nasties have wrecked Frizinghall Station, I would like to see the culprits beaten, and I would volunteer to wield the whip.

Are we not allowed to have shelters to wait for trains and buses? Does everything have to be smashed up?

However, before thinking about punishment, it might be a good idea to catch the vandals. Now there's a novelty.

Frizinghall Station is a daunting place at night. Where are the police and other authorities? Where is the prevention? Where is the justice? Where is the "tough on crime"?
