It’s not the first time the police have had to go to that address!
Unfortunately plenty of drugs, drink and scumbags in this building, which used to be ok.
I feel sorry for the older people that have lived there for years and now have to put up with it all!
Couldn’t agree more, Southern Housing Group need to be held accountable for the tenants they have placed in these flats in amongst vulnerable and elderly people. Complaints are made and nothing it seems is being done to help the other residents. Drug needles littered outside the flats, antisocial behaviour at all hours of day and night and it only seems to be getting worse. Most people in Bembridge don’t realize that this hidden away block of flats is the cause of a high percentage of anti social behaviour and low level crime in the area.
Why would Southern Housing be accountable for what tenants do? They’re not the Police.
Unfortunatly Bembridge has to share the burden of housing these scumbags.
About time too IMO.
You have had it far to easy in the past.
Welcome to the Isle of Wight.
Social integration does not work, never has. Bring back dedicated social housing estates. The police then won’t have to chase about everywhere so much. And sterilise the scumbag producing scumbags, they breed like rats!
Looks like my politely worded comment has been censored then Island Echo, so much for freedom of speech. And that’s indicative of one thing that’s very wrong in this country, we are too tolerant of this kind of antisocial violent behaviour! Thanks Island Echo!
See! People saying the the kids that are violent, it’s not!
He lives in flats, he’s poor. It’s the poor that are violent, ban flats on the island, ban benefit scrounges, castrate them all! For a better tomorrow!
/s
We are not all scroungers. I am on social. We are not all bad.
I hear you brother, Only fools and horses work.
Especially in this current financial mess that the Tory’s have created.
You can’t pay what you ain’t got.
You and types like you with no work ethic are what is wrong with this country. Yes the Tories have and always will make a mess of running the country.
Have some self respect, go and get a job and stop relying on the hard working tax payer to keep you. Wrong, so wrong!
Far too many are. Benefits should cease for miscreants. Unfair on tax payers.
starting with you….
I live around this area u cheeky twat were not all benifit scroungers how rude are u to judge people especially coz people live in a flat lmao I’d rather be poor n happy then a rich stuck up your own ass perve like u lot are
What does Coz and Imoa mean???.. and why do you think people that have success in life are then a rich stuck up your own ass perve ??…
Me thinks you doth protest too much!!!!..
Don’t kid ya self, I’d much rather be stuck up and live in a nice big house with gates keeping the scum away than live in a block of flats surrounded by smack heads!!
Your out of order what you’ve just said that is antisocial,!
I had to be housed once, I went threw hell!
I had to get help I owned my own flat!? And business and threw no fault of my own lost it became a single parent even lost my composure nearly ‘
Its because of people like you that when young loose there way have no faith have no guidance your not a good person for saying that have you helped or tried to help who ever this person is have you given or tried to give guidance made sure they had food no so what do you expect they no different your out of order
For all those who complain about second home owners filling the village just be careful what you wish for
Surely far better that than more affordable or social housing which creates all manner of issues when those who don’t really belong are subsidised to make them believe they do
Both the park and the cemetery have drugs being passed from one skank to another frequently and almost certainly it isn’t the second home owners doing so
No their houses just remain empty for most of year depriving local people the chance to buy a house in an area they have lived in all their life.
Linda, most of the local wealthy peoples children can afford to buy in the village, but you cannot expect those less educated or poorer local people’s children all to be able to afford to buy.
The very fact that house prices are high, ensures the village is kept mostly free of poor troublesome people, who as in other areas bring their anti-social behaviour and crime to everywhere they live en-masse.
Hence why as seen on the Echo, the drugs, drinking, and problems in Bembridge are in areas where poor people have been deliberately subsidised to pretend they ‘fit in’, in affordable homes, or, social housing areas.
Top Hotels have no trouble from guests, whereas the cheaper places do.
The Lincoln way pond would be filled with old mattresses and beer cans if the area was social housing. It is what they live like, they are different. Of course not all, but far too many are.
Be careful what you wish for is correct.
Typical DFL thug throwing his weight about. Shame we can’t send them back where they came from.
Would be good to have our own borders, eh? Weed out the undesirables from the ‘North Island’, of which there appear to be many, bringing their thuggish ways to what used to be our paradise.
Agree. Not welcome here. Probably a right pain in the ass. Send him back from where ever he came from.
A lot of boy racing chavs with noisy exhausts, no brains, no concern for anything except themselves, I am sick of the way Britain is becoming today.
Please explain What this has to do with the article?
Deano you muppet!!!!
You islanders are so small minded you think because your wealthy your a cut above everyone else the majority of people work full-time and pay their taxes but are still unable to buy their own homes it doesn’t make them scum
Not bad for somebody that can hardly walk
