THE young people featured on the front of SUM are absolutely right.
Most of their generation are full of promise for the future of our borough. It is quite wrong that many thousands of young people in Trafford are labelled because a handful of their age group behave badly.
The recent grafitti around Stretford Library is a mess and the Council is committed to cleaning it off as quickly and efficiently as possible, but let the offenders be warned. You will be caught and you will pay for the damage. Stretford is a good place to live and it will not be spoilt by a few kids who never progressed beyond the toddler stage.
