I READ your interesting article regarding town at ‘tipping point’ and Bournemouth’s reputation being stained.
As a large section of the borough population has known, the town reached this position years ago, and has long been a magnet for drinking clubs, violence and anti-social behaviour.
In fact its negative reputation has spread far outside the area.
Maybe it’s time the town got an appropriate new name, an obvious one being ‘Yobtown.’
