Unlawful After Midnight

Nothing seems to attract bad publicity quite like a pop festival. Drugs, nudity and violence make sensational headlines at any time, but when they can be found simultaneously within a single small area, then they command column inches on a gigantic scale. But to the hundreds of thousands of young people for whom a pop festival is a peaceful celebration of their own life-style, this publicity seems totally at variance with their own experience. Now, the proposed Night Assemblies Bill will place restrictions on pop festivals and its critics believe that it could stop them altogether. Tonight all the interested parties will discuss the purpose and possible dangers of the Night Assemblies Bill.
