[Would you ******* believe it? A council has ******* banned swearing in public.
The council in question is Salford which has used a Public Space Protection Order
to tackle anti-social behaviour in the Salford Quays area which includes Media City
, home to the BBC, which might be just a coincidence. Part of the order says it will be deemed a
criminal offence if anyone is caught 'using foul and abusive language'. Public Space Protection Orders,
or PSPOs, are similar to ASBO's (anti-social behaviour orders)../......
If it is true that inconsiderate behaviour is increasing in our society, how should we deal with it?
How do we balance our moral obligation to the rest of society
with our desire to do what we **** well please? Chaired by Michael Buerk with Claire Fox,
Michael Portillo, Giles Fraser and Anne McElvoy.
Witnesses are Anna Minton, Alfie Moore,
Danny Kruger and
Terry Christian.]
