A fuming dad marched his young daughter to the front door of Gary Glitter's bail address demanding an explanation from staff of why they are protecting a child sex offender. The furious parent, who told reporters his name was David Jones, said staff at the hostel asked him to leave and told him they called the police after he sought the explanation.
The 46-year-old construction worker turned up to protest after reports of vigilantes trying to climb the gates at the hostel on Saturday. Mr Jones told the Mirror: "There's schools all around. I'm just appalled at what's going on. That's what my tax pounds are going on? To protect someone like this?
"I would just like someone to explain what's going on. Explain to my six-year-old daughter who you're protecting in there. It's her that needs protecting - not him. It's our children that need protecting.
