“Where a council sought an injunction under s 222 of the Local Government Act 1972 in circumstances in which an anti-social behaviour order (ASBO) would be available, the court should not, save in an exceptional case, grant the injunction but leave the council to seek an ASBO in the magistrates’ court.”
