  • Interesting viewing. You could see from his body language and hear in his voice that the BPA spokesman knew he was talking total b*****ks in trying to defend the indefensible .
    HAHA, if you think this one is bad, the last BPA CEO, Mr Upskirt, did a Double wafflle on BBC Watchdog  together with his mate from the DVLA,
    DID YOU SEE THAT VIDEO ?

    Again it's an old video. You talk about body langauge ... watch upskirt Troy's mouth and gritting of teeth, clearly he was full of it ... nothing has changed with the BPA

    Note the opening comments by Anne.   THE BPA WERE GIVEN THE RESPONSIBILITY TO CRACK THE WHIP BY GOVERNMENT

    THE BPA PROMISED THE DAYS OF THE WILD WEST WAS OVER

    The BPA lied .... The BPA let government down BADLY and should now be terminated because surely government could never trust them again.

    ENJOY THE WAFFLE

    11 YEARS AGO >>>> NOTHING HAS CHANGED

    Thank you @patient_dream. Very instructive "It is sorted now" indeed !!  I think everyone in Government should watch the two clips that you have found

    I could tell that from just the fact that his lips were moving :D
  • Some of these stories are heart-breaking and the rest infuriating.

    How do these scamming scum sleep at night?

    @Coupon-mad et al, I admire your fight against these thieving parasites. You deserve a knighthood.

    Thank you for all your hard work and determination.

    It's behind you....seriously though I agree; damehoods and knighthoods all round for the regulars on this board.  And I don't mean the PPCs pretending to be motorists!

    We've already had a story a few months ago, about Smart Parking reportedly wrecking businesses and the peace of mind of shoppers at the Cherry Tree Shopping Centre.

    Here's an update:
    https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpool-news/controversial-cameras-still-fining-disabled-25771317.amp

    Smart Parking are still infesting the place.

    Apparently trade is down at one shop by 11%, two other outlets have closed as a result of the camera enforcement and disabled people are scared to return, after getting £100 fake fines and demands from DRPlus and CST Law.

    This despite the fact that disabled drivers are exempt.  They are just expected to jump through hoops to 'register their Badge' which apparently they have to read about in small print on nine feet high signs that no-one parking in a 'free parking' Blue Badge bay expects to have to consult.

    And despite the local council already refusing planning permission for the ANPR cameras due to the damage Smart Parking are allegedly causing to the recovery of the High Street shopping centre.

    But no, they are carrying on...
