Panel shocked by night on patrol
MEMBERS of the council's alcohol strategy panel were shocked at what they saw when they joined police on night-time patrols.
In one incident police, ambulance, Derriford hospital, friends and family took two hours to deal with a young woman who was almost comatose, said Cllr Lynda Bowyer (Con, Eggbuckland) said.
Cllr Lorraine Parker (Lab, Southway) said she witnessed a woman who was so drunk outside Oceana on the Barbican leisure park that it took four police to control her.
"It's young women who are making themselves vulnerable through drinking too much," she said.

She saw another young woman beating up her boyfriend, and witnessed police using pepper spray on drunks on the Barbican at 7.30 in the evening.

“What drives them to drink, what goes through their mind, how does Satan assemble in even a kind mind a line. 33 degrees in radian. British Prime Minister David Cameron MP. Did you lie to grow tall.”

“Haha, this is such a misrepresentation. I've been working the club land for over 10 years, all over the place, and reporting isolated incidences like this to portray as a generalisation of Plymouth's nigh life, is complete nonsense. Don't be fooled readers, this is what is called brainwashing! The police want to curb licensing hours, and this kind of media report is designed to do one thing... I'm tired of this!”
