Council excessive charging
Stop enforcing excessive charges for penalty charge notices and vehicle removals
Why is this important?
Recent figures show that the councils are making excessive money;
Figures from the RAC revealed councils in England made a combined £667m profit from parking fines last year.
In an economic state where:
Children are going to school hungry, while some parents are going for days without eating in order to feed them, according to a charity.
The Trussell Trust is calling for a public inquiry into the reasons behind a surge in the use of food banks.
How can we stay quiet and let the councils attack us, we need to challenge the councils on the following matters:
1) Excessive penalty means no difference of lesson taught
2) Councils using nasty bailiffs and debt collection agencies to extract money
3) Figure to state where the money is being spent
4) The councils must ensure that they are not Breach of contract Law Reform (Frustrated Contracts) Act, 1943 section 3, Misrepresentation Act 1967 section 2, Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977
5) That they are not breaching Human rights Act Article 5,6,7,8,11,12
6) The council is acting within Taking control of goods, national standards 2014 Paragraph 66 (relates to excessive levy)
7) That all road marking on public highway comply with The Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions 2002
8) The Civil Enforcement of Parking Contraventions (England) General Regulations 2007 Part 2 Regulation 9 is not being breached
We need to unite and regain control while the economy of this country is suffering and while some parents are going without food just to pay rent / mortgage and their bills. The councils are making excessive profits of millions why because we are letting them, by signing this campaign we can start to make a change !
