Tomorrow night's session at the Globe has been cancelled due to fears of local disorder

The announcement that the Globe will be closed tomorrow night (Wednesday August 7) in the interests of safety to staff and customers due to fears of local disorder is a cause for sadness and despair.

It beggars belief that some of these thugs may be a neighbour, a fellow worker or somebody you chat to about football or the weather or whatever whilst waiting for the bus can, come nightfall, be transformed into vicious, racist hooligans intent on smashing up their own (or somebody else's) neighbourhood and, more than likely, eventually killing an innocent bystander along the way.

I despair that this country has come to this and I am in total agreement with the Globe's decision. I fear more venues will follow until sanity and commonsense prevails. Lance
