Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Dodgy groups of men around Turnpike Lane station.

Is it just me or are the dodgy groups hanging around the station getting worse?

I received some police marketing a while ago stating the issue was being "tackeled", and yet there are groups of guys out there blatantly dealing/taking drugs in broad daylight, with seemingly no fear that they may be arrested.

What can we do to make sure that the decent people of Turnpike Lane are not ignored?

It is 5:45 on Sunday morning. I am on my way to work. As per usual, I walked to Turnpike Lane station and a large group (10?) of the young men that I see selling drugs in and around the passage and standing outside the betting shops regularly (offering my teens drugs) are huddled up at a park bench. CLEARLY having a meeting. This is something that I see at least a couple of times a week either in the common or in a doorway across the street . I have flagged it up to the police. If they are all in the same place at the same time, WHY aren't there any police attending??? At the very least it is SUPER intimidating to walk by. I didn't even want to try and snap a photo slyly in case I was seen. Our area is rapidly becoming a cesspool. These early morning groups are just the tip of the iceberg in my opinion.

You can't really round up people for sitting on a park bench having a meeting.

They - Government are Landing Countless thousands of immigrants. Most young Men Who are given accommodation and a few £'s per day. But Not officially allowed to Work. where are they expected to go to.

But aware that they might get a few £'s begging or hanging around Stations, especially if there is green areas to stay off blocking pavements

Not aware of any crime or Action Police can take. As majority arrived without Papers or Known country of Origin. So they can not be Deported even if they commit Crimes

Yes if selling drugs. But there has to be a market . If they do not fill it others will
