A pub in one of our borough's towns was having its licence renewed (for late night opening and live music with extended hours on certain occasions like Christmas). A bunch of local residents complained.

These residents have bought houses and flats in the centre of town where the night life is. They then attempted to close down or curtail some of that nightlife. If you don't want to hear late music don't buy a house off the busy high street of a town centre.

We get similar nonsense out here. People move to the country to get away from high taxes and to be able to use their property freely then start agitating for services and complaining about their neighbors smelly cattle.
