ASBOs still exist. They have just been given a different name. Do your homework.

How about the IPP prison sentences which still exist.

Good advice, perhaps you should take it.


How about the 3000 people still serving under them? Are we going to wait another 10 years so it can turn into a media hogging scandal like the Post Office affair?

I'm sure if you can find out that IPPs were abolished in 2012 you can find out the new name ASBOs are masquerading under.

I'm not here to correct your misleading posts. I will bring attention to them though.
