It wouldn’t be so bad if after overstaying in these Pay and Display car parks you could ‘top up’ your ticket when you get back late. But you can’t and get a whacking fine on top for being late back. It’s just yet another form of stealth tax on the long suffering public.

All hospital parking should be free, especially for hospital staff.

Think of it this way. If it costs a member of the hospital staff £50 a week to park to go to work that money has to come from somewhere. So they get a pay rise to compensate. This in turn takes away money from patient care AND into the pocket of the private firm running the car park. Is that where the millions of extra funds to the NHS are going?
