Save a lot of hassle and expense for people.

Great job. I like to think that my response to the consultation helped in some small way.

Good news I guess, or not if you’re rear-ended by some youngster with a 2.5tonne digger behind his pickup.

7.5 toners would be nice but there is enough uproar about parking a ford transit in the street in some places.. will probably be short lived anyway as they will probably ban all diesel vehicles and plant with engines in two years time any way.

I was thinking more along the lines of disbanding HMRC or the police but we can go with your suggestion for now. doobin, draft a letter.
