In a shocking indictment of our permissive society it has this week emerged that thugs have been setting fire to pensioners whilst high on skunk and crack.

Things have gone too far. Its bad enough that we tolerate the spicy food and loud music of thugs without allowing them to terrorise decent, middle class families as well.

The Mail will be starting a campaign against thugs and we promise our readers now that we shall not rest until each one of them is hunted down like a dog. The Queen speaking in support of our campaign said "Waterboarding is not torture".
