17 October (Part 2) - Berks in Bexley? Probably not this time
Following the decision of the High Court that it’s illegal for councils to profit from their residents’ parking schemes, a Berkshire council has decided to abolish such charges. Bexley increased its charges to enable it to subsidise services elsewhere, it said so. Abiding by the law is not Bexley council’s strong point so I doubt you will be seeing an outbreak of honesty here any time soon.
