    Given the way you have approached other posters on this thread, I wonder if your attitude towards the PCSO might have had something to do with the way he treated you?

    I don't know why you think your local councillor is going to be interested.

    If you feel strongly, and you remained polite and controlled at all times, then I suggest that a visit to the police is in order, to discuss the PCSO's handling of the situation.

    Whatever you do don't forget to demand compensation.

    All these parking charges are just part of rip-off Britain ;)

    When I book my appointmet with my local councillor, I'll run your suggestion by her.

    Don't forget to waste some more of her time by explaining to her how special you are.

    (And that because of this you post on the net with a bolder font and a different colour to the law abiding riff raff).

    So you did something wrong, refused to move when asked, and now complaining you have a ticket?! :confused:
    So PCSO's have the power to order you to move? Bah!
    After the uprising of the 17th June The Secretary of the Writers Union
    Had leaflets distributed in the Stalinallee Stating that the people
    Had forfeited the confidence of the government And could win it back only
    By redoubled efforts. Would it not be easier In that case for the government
    To dissolve the people
    And elect another?

    If there were double yellow lines I wouldn't have parked / stopped.
