They lurk, they often obscure their faces, they swear and make loud boorish and obscene remarks, spit, throw items, and they try to make themselves generally obnoxious. They know exactly what they're doing, and how far to push it.

If I was a 6ft 15st bloke, I doubt I'd be intimidated by them.

Luckily, the supermarket has had a makeover, and has lost the portico outside the entrance where the gangs used to congregate. It's a much nicer experience all round.

It doesn't help, believe me

5'11" and 18st helps though

I'm taking that as a signal to worsen my diet - well done that man!

No - spend years lifting heavy things.

It's bad enough having to lift myself out of bed

No, I'm suggesting that coming down hard against public assembly just because certain people aren't comfortable is wrong. At the end of the day if they're not harming you then there should be no problem, if they are then that's where the law steps in. If they're being actively intimidating towards you, e.g. through words or behaviour, then the Police can take action under S.5 of the Public Order Act.
