YOU’RE ON CAMERA
2
Vocabulary: surveillance
Councillor A
You are a local councillor and your town has a
number of problems:
1
Motorists drive too fast through the narrow streets.
2
Vandalism and drunkenness are a problem in the
town centre. Families and elderly people keep away.
3
Attacks by dangerous dogs are becoming more
common.
4
Gangs are selling illegal fake goods in the town
centre.
Councillor B
You are a local councillor and your town has a
number of problems:
1
Motorists drive too fast through the narrow streets.
2
Vandalism and drunkenness are a problem in the
town centre. Families and elderly people keep away.
3
Attacks by dangerous dogs are becoming more
common.
4
Gangs are selling illegal fake goods in the town
centre.
You believe ways to deal with the issues are:
•
to install cameras to act as a deterrent but also help
the police keep track of trouble-makers and catch
wanted criminals.
•
to microchip all dogs so the owners of dangerous
ones are registered. They can be easily identified
and their details handed over to the police.
•
to install CCTV in the town centre so the gangs
selling fake goods will move out of the town. You
believe their presence encourages others to break
the law.
You believe ways to deal with the issues are:
•
not to install CCTV. You believe our surveillance
society is not only an invasion of privacy but very
expensive. The money could be spent on more
police and other towns with CCTV still have these
problems.
•
not to microchip dogs, as only responsible owners
would do this and not the owners of the dangerous
dogs.
•
not to worry about the people selling fake goods.
You don’t see the harm in people selling a few fake
handbags and sunglasses.
Councillor C
You are a local councillor and your town has a
number of problems:
1
Motorists drive too fast through the narrow streets.
2
Vandalism and drunkenness are a problem in the
town centre. Families and elderly people keep away.
3
Attacks by dangerous dogs are becoming more
common.
4
Gangs are selling illegal fake goods in the town
centre.
Councillor D
You are a local councillor and your town has a
number of problems:
1
Motorists drive too fast through the narrow streets.
2
Vandalism and drunkenness are a problem in the
town centre. Families and elderly people keep away.
3
Attacks by dangerous dogs are becoming more
common.
4
Gangs are selling illegal fake goods in the town
centre.
You believe ways to deal with the issues are:
•
to install surveillance cameras. You believe that if
you are a law-abiding citizen and you have done
nothing wrong then it doesn’t matter that your
every move is monitored and logged.
•
to use number plate recognition technology to
discourage known criminals, some of whom are
selling the fake goods, from entering the town.
•
to install speed cameras. The evidence that they
reduce accidents and make streets safer and nicer
places to be is overwhelming.
You believe ways to deal with the issues are:
•
not to install speed cameras. You believe they cause
accidents by people slowing down quickly before
them and speeding up after them. The money they
make is not spent on improving roads.
•
not to install CCTV. It is rare for police to actually
look at it for minor crimes like drunkenness and
vandalism.
•
to encourage citizens to be more responsible and
use their camera phones if they see someone
committing a crime. You believe this would make
individuals more accountable for their actions.
