Motorists seen as a cash cow by council

-

DEAR Editor, It comes as little surprise that Birmingham City Council is turning the screws on the motorist. Parking fees are going up; there are more speed cameras being placed around and, wait for it, there are going to be more parking restrictio­ns.

This is how the council intends to claw back money from the Government cuts. The motorist is the easiest target and has always been seen as a cash cow.

An anti-car Labour administra­tion will hammer the motorist until they bleed money because as we have seen from an elitist council, the only car they want on the road is their own. S T Vaughan, Yardley Wood
