IT would be a good idea for the really bad crime areas in Blackburn to have mini police stations.
Two houses could be knocked together to form them, with a couple of holding cells and an office manned 24 hours a day.
The public could then visit these stations with problems and information. Local villains would become known to the police and it could be made difficult for drug pushers as the police could patrol round on foot or with bikes day and night and would be literally on the spot.
Also they would be able to check parked cars for tax evasion.
