Shame them in the same programme!!

And get your money back, you were in the correct space.

I find it's not the National Govenment you have to worry about, but Local Govenment.

They make the rules for the local people, the rules are getting barmier evey day.

MARCH TO THE TOWN HALLS !!!!!!!!

Hi Martin, somehow I've a feeling that you won't be paying that one personally BUT will the ticket be appealed ?
Good luck.

How about an investigation into how much local authorities are making in London from parking tickets.

It might seem a bit London centric; but I've a feeling that its the poor suckers from the provinces who stop on a single yellow line and instantly have their photo taken by someone on a scooter, up a side street, dressed like a sort of mini policeman (Westminster).

It is the cameras on yellow box junctions that particularly worry me:
The other day, I was number three waiting at the lights. We were on the main road and there was a side road coming in from the left to make a "T" junction. The lights changed and off we went. Number one in the Q was a black cab. He spotted a fare waving from the pavement on the right & instantly stopped, indicating right, leaving the other two of us stranded on the yellow hatching.
Do you think I will be getting a ticket like yours ? When I do, will I have any sort of defence ?

But since that date they have been put back to the previous rate thus being i am back to square one with the illegal charges. i have asked the bank but only to be told there charges are as advertised (surprise surprise). So can you please help as to next move to get the uk banking systems head on my silver platter

I don't have any bank charges to reclaim thankfully. It's great to see Martin interviewing Angela Knight again though.
