Harassed by the Home Secretary?

DaithaiC : "I was intrigued at the recent announcement by the Home Secretary Jacqui Smith that she wants the Police to harass yobs? The traditional approach was to get evidence and prosecute in open court! Perhaps this important law officer of the state is unaware of the Protection from Harassment Act 1997 (PHA ’97) and her own department’s advice on the subject to the Police, Prosecutors and the Courts?
