| It’s all about control. It’s the Labour way, do as we say, not as we do. The scheme is all about control and raising revenue. What’s not widely reported is that more than half the existing Stop and Shop bays in the borough are now either shared use or cashless parking bays, effectively commuter parking. Not for quick stops to use local services. Why do you think that is? There’s no ‘data’ to back up the justification for the change. There never is. Not any explanation of where the ‘problem spaces’ were or why enforcement was ‘difficult’. Probably something to do with the shoddy way Ealing treated its wardens, resulting in strike action. When you get ignorant muppets like Paul Driscoll making policy it’s never going to end well. His previous triumph was the destruction of Lammas Parl, which he’s now trying to distance himself from. He’s also boasted about the changes to Occupation Lane, costing tens of thousands of pounds to produce something that resembles a fetid back alley. Why a childless, gay failed art teacher with zero knowledge or experience of running a business or managing a family thinks he’s best placed to decide how most Ealing residents should live their lives is baffling. Well done Dismal Driscoll. You are worth every penny of the £57,000 allowance you pocket from Ealing taxpayers. |
