Disabled woman fined for permit slip-up

Disabled woman fined for permit slip-up

"A traffic warden issued a £35 ticket to an 82-year-old sufferer of Parkinson's disease, who was asleep in a car, because her disabled parking badge was upside down.

The car was legally parked in a disabled parking bay when Jean Raine felt unwell and took a rest.

While she was sleeping a parking warden noticed that her disabled parking disc was the wrong way up but rather than wake her to explain he simply stuck the penalty notice on her windscreen
".

WTF? No discretion. No compassion. No common sense.

Yet another petty minded no-one with some pathetic semblance of power which obviously gives him a hard-on.

I am amazed these sad losers still walk the streets. Do they ever receive a good beating at the hands of civic minded citizens, the anti-nazi league, or some other well meaning remnant of what England once was and now is obviously not?

white rabbit: Indeed he does. However, you will need to visit Unity at the Ministry of Truth to see Iain Dale as Blakey...

Sort of person who would sell his grandmother's soul to the devil if he gained from it, what a prick.
