HAVING read about the all-night rave which kept most of north Oxford awake (Oxford Mail, September 21), I’d like to point out that a good night’s sleep is a fundamental need for the mental health and well-being of human beings.
Being kept awake all night by noise, against one’s will, is a form of mental torture and is surely an environmental health issue.
If the organiser Matthew Hatwell is allowed to get away with torturing the citizens of Oxford and its environs, what is to stop other selfish, inconsiderate individuals from doing the same and making life hell.
