Is this really what it's all about?
Tax farming?
Stealth tax?
Hatred of the motorist?
Or is it the exploitation by private enforcement companies and the need for councils and 'the industry' to generate the revenue to keep 'the industry' which also includes the 'independent' adjudicators well fed at the parking trough?
Parking fines are the new instrument of the left against the middle class
Intransigent wardens chasing targets and bonuses are hated by car owners and are a PR disaster for councils
