Regarding the so called Gladstone's letter , it may be from drp and not Gladstone's , so check the address and who it says to pay , it's it's gslcollections and a knutsford golf club address , with 30 days notice , reply as per an LBC , plus email a SAR to the DPO at the PPC involved (which PPC ? )
If it's from drpl with a gal letterhead , ignore it
As for this live Britannia court claim , concentrate on your Defence , we haven't seen paragraphs 2 and 3 yet !! (Plus ensure your AOS is done , the MCOL claim history will tell you)
You can worry about the greater good after the DQ stage has been filed , for now , concentrate on the here and now , regardless of what Britannia reply with , your defence does not rely on the SAR reply , with or without that reply slip you sent2 -

The facts as known to the Defendant?2. It is admitted that the Defendant was the registered keeper of the vehicle in question but liability is denied as the defendant was definitely not the driver.3.1 the defendant was first made aware of the alleged breach of contract on the 27th of August 2020. The defendant was not the driver at the time of the alleged offence and was confident that the photos sent were proof of this. As a consequence the defendant completed the transfer of liability section on the letter providing full details and a serviceable address for the driver, and this was returned via first class post on the 13th of September; the defendant would therefore like to acknowledge that this was compliant with the responsibility to POFA.3.2 No appeal was made to the claimant for liability within the 28 days due to the defendant complying with the request set out in the transfer of liability.3.3 following harassment and the level of distress caused the defendant emailed the claimants representative on the 3rd of December to dispute the debt and requested that liability for the debt was proven to be the defendants responsibility as per the financial conduct authority under section 7.3.4 A response was received on the 9th of December 2020, this response only contained the original PCN (copy) from the 27th of August 2020 and the subsequent final letter dated the 14th of September 2020. There was no attempt made to establish with the defendant the basis of the dispute nor did it attempt to rectify the concerns raised.3.6 The defendant maintains that they have not withheld information in regards to the identity of the driver thus fulfilling their responsibility as registered keeper
My defence statement so far1 -
It is admitted that the Defendant was the registered keeper of the vehicle in question but liability is denied. as the The Defendant was definitely not the driver and transferred liability to the driver in accordance with the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012, Schedule 4. At that point, the Defendant's potential for any liability (which is not admitted because it is not automatic) ended.
Remove this and remove all your 'of' in the dates; it reads badly when you put the word 'of' in!; the defendant would therefore like to acknowledge that this was compliant with the responsibility to POFA.
PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

It's not an offence, so change this:alleged offence parking event

A real letter before claim must give you 30 days
It may come of a surprise to you but you and this forum are far smarter than Gladstones.
If it comes to a court claim, by then you will have the perfect defence ready with the help of the forum. Are Gladstones good in court = NO, they use "rent by the hour" legals who are normally clueless and useless. Mind you, they often don't turn up at all or they discontinue before the court date because they know their case is rubbish. Couple that with courts dismissing their claims for fakery, you would have a most enjoyable time
