A man charged with making nuisance calls to the emergency services, despite a community protection notice in place preventing him from doing so, has seen his case adjourned until 28th May. Michael Clifton-Smith, 36, of High Street in Ventnor, appeared before the Isle of Wight Magistrates Court on Friday (26th April) charged with persistently making use of a public communication network to cause annoyance/inconvenience/anxiety, as well being an individual failing to comply with a community protection notice. It is alleged that the offences occurred between 15th November 2023 and 13th March 2024. The case has been adjourned until 28th May to allow Mr Clifton-Smith to seek legal representation. He has been granted unconditional bail until that time.

Anyone breaking the speed limit should be sent to an Asylum,
the backward B’stards will never learn.
You lead the way!
Not like the old bill do any work in the first place
Probably because it is the only freephone number in the UK for sad, bored people. All the others are £3 a minute, multiple choices and then keep you hanging on for 10 minutes… 🙂 Okay… I am joking… 🙁
