Below is a link to an article about PPCs from the Winsford Guardian. Apart from two inappropriate uses of the "f" word, I commend the reporter for this piece of journalism, especially her link to this forum :-

    No wonder the BPA are trying so hard to get amendments through on the Freedoms Bill.
    I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.

    I thought the use of the F word was handled well. The reporter stated they had started to issue fines at the car park but when quoting Martin they were described in the correct context.
