Locals dub Bradford 'lawless' and reveal bus and taxi drivers AVOID certain streets for fear of attacks - as the city is voted among the worst places to live in England for being rife with crime

 

Bradford locals have dubbed the city 'lawless' after it was voted among the worst places to live in England.

 

The West Yorkshire city was savaged in an online poll released last week as being rife with drug crime and career criminals.

 

Despite boasting a university and stunning city centre architecture, some locals said the best thing they could say about the place was how quickly you could get to Leeds and Manchester.

 

In the shadow of the grade II listed 19th Century city hall - recently visited by King Charles - people can be seen openly drinking booze and taking drugs.

 

And in the city's notorious Holme Wood housing estate, locals said bus and taxi drivers daren't venture down certain streets for fear of attacks from feckless youths.

 

In the shadow of the grade II listed 19th Century city hall - recently visited by King Charles - people can be seen openly drinking booze and taking drugs.

 

And in the city's notorious Holme Wood housing estate, locals said bus and taxi drivers daren't venture down certain streets for fear of attacks from feckless youths.

 

'I'd rate it in the top five. I've moved around the country and there are some rough places, but it is bad here. It's lawless.'

 

Several taxi companies have listed the estate as a 'no-go' area are drivers were left with black eyes, while others were subjected to being harassed for money after their windows were smashed in.

 

During the afternoon, young men could be seen roaming the estate on horseback, while a large pile of rubbish lies burning on a field near a children's play park.

 

The man added: 'A CCTV camera has been installed in the bus stop because it's always vandalised. It's only been in a few days and it's been vandalised as well.

 

'Every taxi I get, the drivers refuse to drive straight into the estate. Gangs of yobs will stand on the street corner and throw bricks at cars.

 

'One guy got out of the car and got a baseball bat out, then some youths came down with a sledgehammer.

 

'It has its eruptions. Violence is a regular occurrence. The police turn up and they all scarper.

 

'They've got no chance of catching them, because they know all the alleyways and shortcuts that police cars can't get down and they're gone.'
