Parking Tickets, It’s a Tax in all but name

The parking tickets (“Where were we meant to park ?”; LT, Jan 6) are part and parcel of the regressive tax system  we have in this country. It’s a welcome cash cow as far as the Council are concerned. Unfortunately those victims will witness at first hand the perverse relationship between the effort of issuing a PCN to that of winning an appeal. Some folk will give up on the process. It’s a pity the Council’s don’t factor well being into their policies. Happy days.
