It was even better in the 60s when I was a kid. I remember seeing many famous people in shows there. Lulu, Ken Dodd, Cilla Black, Dusty Springfield. And many many more who's names I've forgot. Real shame whats happened to Blackpool!

Utter waste of police resource. Two coppers could have stood there and waited until he chose to calm down. Also, no point whatsoever in such a big cordon.

[@TheBlackpoolLads]

I agree Ian with that, so many police care which I believe wasn't needed, a huge resource went into this, maybe they had their reasons we dont know about perhaps. Many thanks for the comment also, all the best Paul.

[@ABadSpiritToken]

If he was to then have a weapon on his person and proceeded to attack people, you will be saying there wasn't enough presence. He is more than likely known to them and high risk. It's also very possible the item he discarded is in the proximity, or other items they deem he might have and they need to preserve the scene. To outsiders it might look like a giant waste of time but they will have their reasons.

[@NorthernMouse52]

I lived in Blackpool 20 years ago and I was glad to leave!

[@rogermellie8068]

Fun fact : you are legally allowed to walk through a police cordon. The only time you can be removed is if you interfere in an incident ie try to free someone being arrested or if there is a danger to life ie collapsing building or natural disaster. Feel free to cross the tape 👍

[@ABadSpiritToken]

Look up DPP v Morrison, passing the tape itself is not a crime but there are in fact other crimes you can commit by doing so. I'm not saying that applies to this situation but it is wrong to assume you can do as you like.

I used to go to Blackpool as a kid in the 60s when you had to get there very early to get a spot on the beach, it was always packed with so many people that when I went to the tea hut with granddad you can bet we would have a job finding our way back to our family spot. I still love Blackpool but do not feel safe like I did back in the 60s.

[@TheBlackpoolLads]

Many thanks for your comment and watching, Glad you have some wonderful memories of Blackpool, I bet it was incredible coming and living in Blackpool in the 60's & 70's. I have seen many videos of what it was like, looked an incredible place to be. I'm really sorry you feel that way now, but I can understand what you mean, to be fair if you are along the Prom then theirs always people around and its really safe, lots of families and people walking around so its not that bad, I know its had a bit of a bad write up lately but things are changing for the best. I do hope you manage to come back and you feel secure when/if you visit again, but you seem to have some wonderful memories of the place which is truly amazing, again all the very best and take care.

Paul the cordon was to keep people filming away. Which they are legal to do 😮

[@kenworkman3964]

The police have no "legal" powers to stop or obstruct anyone, be it a journalist or just a member of the public from filming anything they can see when stood in a public area. The Association of Police Chiefs have issued those instructions to every force in the country but it seems that many officers just can't be bothered to remember them. I highlighted the word "legal", as often they will throw their weight about by threatening to arrest someone filming - that itself is a criminal offence.
