A #pub landlord in #NeedhamMarket #MidSuffolk closed his pub early due to the amount of abuse his staff were getting. This is a relatively small town with barely 4 700 people, and considered more affluent and safer than the urban sprawl of #Ipswich !
Interestingly in this article he claims #alcohol isn't always the issue - whilst I'm slightly cynical that he wouldn't want to admit to serving punters who are too intoxicated (a licensing violation in this country), I know #Suffolk well enough to fully believe him, there are plenty of angry people on a short fuse and they can be worse out in the sticks (where Police response times are longer, as the old bill have to travel from the outskirts of Ipswich or Bury St Edmunds)
