Do you support the use of Antisocial Behaviour Orders (ASBOs)?
Currently, the UK enforces anti-social behaviour orders (ASBOs) which tell an individual over 10 years old how they must not behave. Examples of anti-social behaviour include: arson, begging, dangerous driving, defecating/urinating in public, disturbing the peace, dogging, drug use, drunken behaviour, fare evasion, homophobia, intimidation, littering, loitering, noise pollution, racism, rioting, rudeness, smoking in public places, spitting, stealing, mugging, vandalism, and graffiti. Penalties for individuals proven to behave antisocially include fines, being banned from certain locations, and/or spending time with people who are known as trouble-makers for at least two years.

There's a grey area that's overlooked here. If a person is urinating publicly because the public toilets cost money, charging a person for a basic human function, then they shouldn't be punished - it's not their fault they didn't have the change for the toilet, or there wasn't one available. People can't just NOT need urinate, because their councils rules (charging for urination or not providing the accessibility to) put them in a precarious position. That shouldn't be treated in the same light as abusing a person for their sexual affinity, or setting fire to a bin.
