“I would have thought this should apply to all locations, all of the time. It should apply to folks of any age - not just young people. The police should be trusted not to misuse this.”

“Excellent idea, it worked in the Meadows and Clifton so with the hard work of the SNT's in that area I am sure it will have a great and rappid effect, especially when the first one gets nicked for failing to disperse. Well done to all involved and thanks for making Nottingham safer!!”

“Back home to their parents, who probably sent them to the off-licence in the first place !”
