I saw them a few years ago (with my own eyes) having a running battle with police in riot gear on Brownhill Road.

I also worked the event for two years with a local group I was involved with. It's all so nice during the day, but a large section of the attendees are animals and it all gets a bit naughty around 5-6pm. Anyone with any sense is long gone by then.

Blythe Hill festival - couple of coppers who are happy to let small children try on their helmets. People's Day - hundreds of police with riot gear handy and ready for immediate use.

You don't have to be a rocket scientist to spot the difference and the reasons why. Why the council continue to waste our council tax on this zoo is a mystery to me.
