As a Pcso, Mr Woodgate will also take on other community policing tasks in the town centre.
I dont see him doing it, all he does is walk around town issuing PCNs.
There are other jobs he can and should be doing. But come on being an ex traffic warden what do you think he is going to do all of his time.
In regards to me being wrong. Yes I didnt know of the changes. That s not what I am complaining about. I am in fact complaining about the utter rudeness of the PCSO which only a few of you have touched on. He asked me
"If you have a problem complain then?" Yeah I do have a problem your a PCSO and your being rude to me just because I offered some advise (which turns out to be wrong) to someone. Lay off giving out tickets and help the community better.
Just of interest what exactly should a PCSO be doing as I cannot find anything that mention handing out parking tickets.

Are they like special constables, traffic wardens or local authority neighbourhood wardens?
Just as PCSOs are not the same as police officers, they are not the same as special constables, traffic wardens or local authority wardens. They are a unique role designed purely to tackle local anti-social behaviour and issues affecting the quality of life. Police Forces continue to support special constables who have the same powers as police officers. While PCSOs will be providing a visible and regular patrol, unlike neighbourhood wardens, they are employed by the police and have some powers provided by an Act of Parliament to allow them to directly tackle some anti-social behaviour issues.I all have learnt is from others on many sites.
Seek legal help if unsure.
Dont pay Private Parking tickets - they are mere invoices.
PRESS THANKS
