Perhaps it's time to fill up her postbag with how POFA is been used to extort money from hard working hard pressed people via paper clamping with the help of DVLA who manufacture false consent to break the data protection act.

The more horrible truth is that many of the companies who once fought for keeper liability and smiled like Cheshire Cat's when POFA was enacted are the very companies who have now dumped POFA because they simply can't comply with the conditions POFA imposed.

The DVLA continue to connive at the situation and granted the IPC ATA status when their original CoP was entirely designed to circumvent POFA - something the DVLA chooses to berates others for breaching.

There is a degree of hypocrisy abroad - as far as private parking is concerned - that beggars belief. Whether that is founded on an interest in money or on the ridiculously over-egged belief that the filthy hoi polloi need to be kept off our land don't you know. "Gerroff My lannnd" works well but issuing a PCN makes money - and they keep coming back.

The is an old Russian proverb - "Где говорят деньги, там молчит совесть" - "When money speaks the truth is silent".

As for the DM - "Thats a fine paper to wipe your **** with" - as my father was wont to say (in the days when the DM was still a broadsheet).

Knutsford's in Cheshire, just saying

So is Macclesfield (referenced earlier in the thread). Leamington Spa isn't and nor is Leeds.

[rant]I see no difference between what BW Legal are doing now and what MIL have been doing for the last year - except BW Legal have a small figleaf in the shape of solicitors on their staff. The co-opting, one might say even hijacking, of the MCOL system by the likes of MIL and BWL could not be clearer illustration of the fact that MCOL has become the speculator's tool of choice.

It is whichever way you dress it legalised blackmail of the worst kind. For the investment of a mere £25 they get to threaten their victim - "Pay us £150 or we'll ruin your credit record". People are making a very large profit at this because they know that the vast majority will suck it up because it will cost far more than the money demanded to fight it. MIL's own documents show that they do not even ask for the evidence from the PPC's until a few weeks before the case is heard and so their issuing proceedings is based solely on the details of a PCN and nothing more.

This is plain and simple financial clamping.

As far as the real PPC story is concerned (as opposed to minor aspects of it) there isn't a single member of the media who has shown the least bit of interest in getting to grips with it in any detail. Such "interest" as there has been over the years is only ever another flash in the pan and nibbled around the edges. So pardon me, Mr Bentley, if I don't contribute to your "campaign"[/rant].
