Blackpool Police and council bosses are cracking down on street begging in another general clean up.




Loitering around cash machines and shop doorways, begging and selling the so called joke mags to tourists on the prom have been top of the agenda for a general purge.

Thirteen separate offenders have already been run in.... three of them facing prosecution over the joke mag sales.

Four repeat offenders are up for loitering and begging.

It's a subject that gets locals angry...now its hoped another purge can clean up the streets before the end of the season.

The matter goes before full council next week.
