A NUMBER of areas in Bromsgrove have large signs forbidding the consumption of alcohol, however these orders are not enforced as I and many residents know only too well.

What is the point of putting up these signs, at some expense, for individuals to continue drinking and with associated anti-social behaviour. In fact, some of the signs have already been targeted with graffiti. The police need to target these individuals and to send out the message that this behaviour will not be tolerated.

I would also suggest they target local shops regarding the selling of alcohol to youths.
