the worst part of it is both amental and myself know people round this way who are part of decent crews, but like any minority group ravers are judged by their lowest common denominator

to be honest norfolk is a pretty frustratin story in its own, but when it has a butterfly effect on the whole country… people aint too happy to say the least.
unfortunately the problems actually do go beyond Norfolk..
I saw exactly the same stupidity a few years ago in South East England
And there has also been a lot of recent anti-rave publicity in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, in Wales (particularly following Wentwood), and a recent party in Reading made the news as the building it was held in got smashed up.
If you read the Eastern news sites the cops also mention that a lot of the cars attending gatherings in EA are from outside the region. (they do follow through the number plates gathering).
Of course as radio scanners don’t work any more “our side” can’t get more details of the range of those attending, but I would suspect many are actually from SE England, particularly mid Oxfordshire, some are from the East Midlands and a large bulk are from the “no mans land” of Herts, Bucks and Beds which is “neither SE England nor East Anglia”.
Have a proper read of what that MP Christopher Fraser has been saying, then look at the other MP’s who are supporting it. An MP can’t get parliament debtting time for a Bill on his own, he has to get others to support what he wants done. Many of the MPs supporting the Bill are from nowhere near Norfolk, there are even Welsh Labour MPs who would normally be completely opposed politically.
The harsh fact is that the whole of the South is being locked down from a load of differerent areas, as the locals everywhere have finally had enough after 20 years of unlicensed raves.
