... but after 4 hours of trying in Brighton in an unmarked car and 2 days in F1 NED in Westminster we were forced to concede defeat.While F1 NED was parking in and around Westminster I took a train ride down from London to assist two local parking campaigners in Brighton in an attempt to get a Penalty Charge Notice ... and then show how easy it is to appeal.
First we parked Ray St Clair's car in a location and went and met up with Mike Gurney from Glowzone who we assisted in getting a High Court winding up order on his business quashed over unpaid parking tickets .... due to Brighton's PCNs being non-compliant.
Ray and his associates have also had a number of PCNs and they were also cancelled after our intervention.
We went for coffee ... nearly two hours later no tickets.
Off we went to a different location ... this time Gardner Street. The loading bay was non-compliant on a number of points and we sat and waited ... and waited ... and waited.
No Parking Attendants even ventured into the street. It appears as though word was out.
Meanwhile, back in London F1 NED was having no success in Westminster. Parking Attendants walk past without stopping or log the vehicle and never come back. Cars are ticketed in front and behind. When we drive off cars are ticketed in the same place.
Seems like all you need is double yellow lines down the side of the car and you are either invincible or invisible.
After the Dispatches programme we seem to be untouchable ... so come on Westminster and Brighton ... what are you scared of?

I should know - I was with Neil in Brighton!
Actually I saw TWO parking attendants walk down North Street passing the end of Gardner Street - which means they walked past the front of my car parked in their non-compliant bay and ....
They completely ignored it!
