Cardiff has a lot of problems but I don't think we are comparable to many other cities and I don't believe we have that level of infiltration by serious and dangerous gangs.
What frustrates me is that a lot of the general decay is very easy to solve. The broken windows theory is a very good one. There also needs to be work done to make compulsory purchases far easier. The state of the old Tredegar pub (pretty certain that's what it's called) is an absolute disgrace and it's been like that for years
Pill , parts of Clifton st Cardiff , parts of high street swansea are in their own way every bit as run down as Toxteth in Liverpool or Parts of moss side in Manchester
A walk or drive along parts of barry road in Cadoxton , Barry are an eye opener
Poverty and deprivation is bigger in Birmingham and Glasgow as they are far bigger places than Cardiff or Newport but it's the same thing
