Mid-week I had a chat with Sean Plunket on Radio Live about the Jesse Ryder assault, men, violence and fighting. Here’s the link in case you missed it:

Closing the alcohol outlets at midnight might be of some
help I can remember biking home alone after work from late evening
shift work when there was still 10pm closing, and the streets
always seemed totally safe for a lone middle-aged woman. Now it
would be impossible and highly dangerous. There has always been a
problem with alcohol-fueled violence, but it is now a lot worse,
and involving much younger people. It might cause great outrage in
some quarters, including the entertainment industry, to suggest
getting back to early closing, but it probably be a great relief to
the hospital accident and emergency departments, and the health
system all round! There would be a lot more time and money to care
for sick people. Also there would be a lot less serious traffic
crashes, and also the police would have a lot more time to deal
with other sorts of crime.
