Parking in Sunderland. Has the Council turned over a new leaf?

Or is it a case of global cooling?



Mr. X was issued with a PCN in Sunderland whilst parked outside the Civic Centre to ... pay a PCN!


He set his Blue Badge and thought he was okay. However, as can be seen from the photographs below the Parking Attendant thought otherwise.

It was pointed out that he should have seen the upright plates. The Council supplied evidence that the plates were there (see below).

One has to ask the question why the council would submit evidence in the form of undated photographs ... unless there was intent to deceive.

Check the trees in the first set ... covered in leaves. On the second set the trees are bare.

I will leave it to you for comment.
