Will it?  I, as a motorist doubt it.  I know it won't leave 'the
motorists' in a dilemma 'cos I am a motorist and I'm not in a dilemma.
How do you know?

That's an unsupported claim which isn't made in the article or by the
chap in question.

Personally I find the best way to avoid parking fines is to not park
illegally.

If this chap, however, has found that some parking areas and council
officials are indeed acting illegally then whilst I agree he should be
allowed to protest about it I have no compunction to join in his
protest, and certainly won't worry or get in a dilemma about it..

Heheheh, you're a fuckwit and no mistake.  I'm a motorist 'here' and I
get off my arse and complain, go on demonstrations [1] etc ... but only
when it's for something I believe in.  What proof have you that others
don't also?

I'm an ex-miner from way before 1984 and do know a little of what goes
on at demonstrations and protests, Indeed I'm now in Unison and
recently joined the 2 day strike [2] for better pay.

[1] Like Pro-Hunting ... ;)
[2] Waste of time in my opinion, but I'm a member of the union and
stood by the strike mandate on principle.

He might also dislike knowing that I drive, race and compete in RTV
trials a 4x4 ... and am proud of it.  ;)

If they're complaining about the campaigners, they don't support the 
fucking cause do they?
