Lord Parkinson of Whitley Bay (Con)
As I said, the Government have taken action to extend football banning orders to cover offences including the selling and taking of class A drugs at football games, which certainly had an effect on some of the disorder that we saw. We are taking forward action both as a Government and with policing partners.
Lord Mackenzie of Framwellgate (Non-Afl)
My Lords, I recall many years ago policing a match at Feethams in Darlington. I caught three youths climbing over the fence. I made them go back in to watch the end of the match, which I thought was a suitable punishment.
Lord Parkinson of Whitley Bay (Con)
A punishment that fits the crime.
