The Chichester Observer carries a feature : Writer disputes leaflet’s claims about badly-behaved youngsters, going on to say : An anonymous leaflet condemning anti-social behaviour by some young people at Arundel Park, Chichester, and calling for action over it has been condemned by one angry resident as ‘smacking of vigilantism’. Dr Mike Lawrence strongly disputes claims made, and suggested some ‘curtain twitcher’ was resolving internal problems. “It seems to have been compiled from horror stories in the Daily Mail” and he did not recognise Arundel Park from it. “It is anonymous and therefore illegal.” “The leaflet was probably written by a man, a person whose life had disappointed him. He probably never achieved the goals in education or in his career which he felt he should have done.”
