200 banned from Nottingham city centre: Do you know these troublemakers?
MORE than 200 orders are in force banning troublemakers from drinking in Nottingham's streets and visiting its shops and car parks.

The bans are aimed at curbing abusive and intimidating behaviour and shoplifting.
Figures out today show the number of antisocial behaviour orders and other orders have increased markedly since 2007. Since April last year, 543 orders have been imposed on people to control behaviour. Around 200 orders are still active, though some stretch back before that date.

The 543 total compares to 153 between April 2006 and April 2007.
Officers from the city's Community Protection team released pictures and details naming 22 of the most recent people to be given orders.
They include Angela Shand, 40, of Basford, who spat at a police officer.
Her Criminal Antisocial Behaviour Order bans her from carrying an open container of drink in the city centre, going into Debenhams and even from going to Nottingham Magistrates' Court unless she has an appointment.
Richard Antcliff, head of neighbourhood enforcement at Community Protection, said: "With this kind of behaviour you often know who the perpetrator is and can act.
"I have heard the argument that orders are seen as a 'badge of honour' so many times, but in the cold hard light of day, when we've taken action that might mean they can't even associate with their friends, the vast majority of that talk is bravado."

“can't see the city councils very own street fighter-head of community protection but formerly head of anti social behaviour- good old Richard Antcliff!!! his case of fighting in city centre on a Friday night was swiftly swept under the carpet and came to....nothing. Absolute hypocrisy.”

“Well if it was 1930's Germany, technology issues aside, SlickSpoons doesn't strike me as the kind of person capable of understanding German to the level required to read all comments below in German. Unless of course he/she is a mother tongue German speaker.”

“After reading some of these comments, I had to check what year it was to make sure I hadn't travelled back in time to 1930s Germany.
You lot should be ashamed of yourselves!”

“If my memory serves me correctly the person in the photo above tried to get me to give him money once when I was waiting for a National Express coach from Broadmarsh. Upon saying no, he got rather uppity with me till I pointed out that there was no way he was going to get a single penny out of me without one hell of a fight. He staggered off to the other side of the station looking for an easy target. Gutless coward whoever it was even if it wasn't the above. Whatever people say though we have always had these types, they just may be more numerous than a few decades ago. That said the city council has done a good job in trying to contain this because the problem was far worse in the early 2000's around Broadmarsh and the Railway station.”

“Cant this scum be put to good use every weekend - hi viz florescent yellow clothing head to foot and get them cleaning up the streets around where I live = Portland Road/Raleigh Street where their close relatives have been kind enough to drop bottles, fast food containers and half eaten kebabs and pizzas. These streets are a dumping ground so why not make this pool of scum clean it up?? Or is it against their civil liberties?!!!!”
