A cruel world in Barnet

 


Don't blame the Adjudicator, their job is to apply the law. If this had been a parking PCN the adjudicator could have recommended that Barnet Council exercise discretion and cancel or not pursue the PCN. That power is not available to an adjudicator for moving traffic PCNs.

The exercise of discretion over their PCNs is the sole province of Barnet Council. Councillors are kept out of, or don't try and get involved in, the day to day process and this case sadly and perfectly demonstrates why they should be more involved. Don't leave the day to day decisions to 'officers' (staff or contractors) who may be blinded by the revenue raising imperative.

Perhaps Barnet Council are trying to get their £4,000 back from when they failed another autustic person.

Mr Mustard is sure that Barnet Council (and others) hate the regular kicking they get from Mr Mustard. When they stop being utterly mean and miserable he will have nothing bad to write about (and there have been a few occasions when he has written about kindness). Will that day ever arrive?

The end.
