Description:

"Hooligans who wreak havoc on local communities" could face up to two years in jail under the plans to tackle anti-social behaviour, the government has said.

Police and councils in England and Wales will be able to apply for new "respect orders" to ban persistent offenders from town centres or from drinking in public places like High Streets and parks.

Breaching the orders will be a criminal offence, carrying a prison sentence of up to two years, with courts also able to issue unlimited fines or order offenders to carry out unpaid work.
