"At the moment, the British army is protecting the people here from the 'B' Specials coming in. They can do that best by being out themselves on their own barricades."
Interesting concept: Can a housing estate declare itself outside of the rule of the current law and order administration? Have they they right to withdraw support? I wonder how many areas would like to rule themselves, and kick out the Gardai, or the Metropolitan Police or the Gendarme? Quite a few I suspect!
ok do it but you have to source your own water supply, waste disposal and so on. Ideally your community could collectively pay a service fee but this would be a source of punitive pressure to prevent people doing this
