I bet the Bozos at UKPC wouldn't have chanced court with this scam, and I don't care what anyone says it is an attempt at a scam by these chancers!

The ticket was only cancelled as 'a gesture of goodwill' after the Guardian intervened. The Guardian commented that this shows how useless POPLA has become.
