Please sign the petition

Those cowboys at the British Parking Association have managed to get a clause inserted into the Protection of Freedom bill which would make the registered owner of a vehicle liable for unpaid parking charges. These scammers should be stopped from giving themselves more powers to attempt to rip us off. There is an e-petition ( not mine) at

http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/6342

which would get this clause debated in Parliament if it gets 100,000 signatures. Unfortunately it's only up to 3,000 at the moment so please sign it and tell your friends to sign it too.

Would it be possible to get this made into a sticky (just until the bill is debated), or even get mentioned in the weekly e-mail?

And why is it in the Protection of Freedom bill, it isn't protecting anyone's freedom, quite the opposite?
