A YOUTH who attacked two Isle of Dogs councillors has been jailed for four months after failing to carry out his community service.

Phil Briscoe and Shirley Houghton, both Conservative members of Tower Hamlets Council, were set upon near the Barkantine Estate last September.

Thanks to CCTV cameras police tracked down the culprits, who were ordered to carry out community service by Thames Magistrates Court.
