Santa Claus comes early ... free parking for Brighton motorists

Looks like Christmas may come early for beleaguered Brighton motorists targeted relentlessly by NCP Services Parking Attendants on behalf of Brighton Council.

However, the reason why has caused anger amongst the Parking Attendants who are set to go on strike because NCP Services have cancelled the Christmas Party and bonuses.

The GMB Union which represents the Brighton Parking Attendants branded NCP Services 'Scrooge-like.'

NCP Services' 'Tiny Tim' Cowen said "We feel that as one of the most diverse workforces in the UK - employing people from more than 100 countries - it is perhaps not any longer appropriate just to recognise Christmas celebrations."

So there we have it ... NCP Services now joins the PC brigade ... but this time there will be a benefit ... free Christmas Parking in Brighton.

So, NCP doesn't stand for
N ... NO
C ... CHRISTMAS
P ... PARTIES
... unless you are a Parking Attendant.

If you are a motorist it stands for
N ... NICE
C ... CHRISTMAS
P ... PRESENT
