We of course need to see the new code
Parliament will approve it, by now all MP's know it's a scam.
Will this mean that the so called 2024 code put together by the BPA and IPC will be shedded and flushed down the toilet3 -
Thanks again @Coupon-mad and @bargepole for all your work on this; plus of course everyone else contributing. I've never had a ticket but am deeply invested in your success because I believe in fair play. You are ornaments to society; shining lights in stark contrast to some other behaviour. Onwards and upwards Humdinger6

Let's kick this off again in 2025 as evidence for the 'new' MHCLG.
I'm looking for:
- signs where the PCN is £50/£60/£70
or
- signs (any PCN value) that don't quantify the DRA fee as a stated sum in large lettering.
If you take photos yourself, please show them as a screenshot to show the date a photo was taken) or with that metadata embedded.
It Is important that we aren't accused of showing old photos.
Here's one showing the Group Nexus sign that supposedly supports a PCN in April 2025.Now this is £100 PCN but this one is evidence that the fake DRA charge ISN'T readable or quantified, which is important to prove it does NOT act as a deterrent:
Needs the metadata from @Helpneeded321

Civil Enforcement Ltd's sign from this current 2025 thread has the £100 in much, much smaller font than the headline tariffs.
Most importantly, there's no readable info about a DRA fee which is unknown and has zero deterrent value:PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
