The police may well have broken up the raves in East Sussex (The Argus, July 29) but they did little to protect other people in the area from the aftermath.
We were enjoying a family camping weekend at a site near Bodiam, when the relaxed atmosphere was broken by a number of the dispersed ravers turning up at the site at 10pm and attempting to continue their party among the caravans and tents.
The music aside, our greater concern was the dangerous driving and skidding of their cars between the tents, lighting fires too close to their cars for safety, roaming among the tents looking for firewood and anything else they could take and open dealing of drugs.
The camp-site owner was called twice to the site but failed to remove them and had the cheek to suggest we call the police if we wanted anything more to be done.
I presume the police felt their job had been done in breaking up the rave but would it not have been sensible to shield other vulnerable locations in the vicinity from suffering the inevitable fallout?
