Any comments about the parking warden who was beaten up in Wandsworth yesterday?

FOR TRYING TO TICKET A FUNERAL CAR WHICH WAS DELIVERING FLOWERS TO THE WAKE OF A SOLDIER KILLED 12 DAYS AGO IN IRAQ. Should he think himself lucky ONLY to have been hospitalised !


Note: I tried to put this under "Cars %26amp; Transportation" but apparently Mr Yahoo knows better!

Any comments about the parking warden who was beaten up in Wandsworth yesterday?
How odd - I've been there but I didn't see a car park attached to the pub - just a couple of tables in the very small front drive - and car park entrance or not, even a ha'porth of common would have told that bloke that it was just a delivery of flowers and he could have looked the other way for a minute or two. Never mind, perhaps it'll happen at HIS funeral one day.
Reply:I doubt if anyone has any sympathy for this chap!.. Parking wardens are supposed to use discretion,,obviously this one was a jobs worth type so got what was coming to him..





Unfortunately two wrongs don't make a right - Those involved could have appealed against the ticket and would most likely have got away with it! by beating him up! they will face prosecution and end up paying a bigger fine than the one which would have been imposed in the first place..





Life isn't fair is it?
Reply:I think it really depends on whether the parking warden knew that the cars were with a funeral.


If he did, then I would have thought that he would turn a blind eye and carry on.


If he didn`t, but saw the hearse, perhaps he should have made some enquiries.


In any case, beating him up was extreme and should not have happened, although I can understand that feelings were high and the beating should not have happened.
Reply:Ok the Traffic was over the top and should have used hes Discretion over this And it was Stated that the poor Soldier who Lost hes life ,Fighting for hes Country Bless him ,TheTraffic Warden took one Beating in the Heat of the Moment But There it Should have stopped The Soldier who Was Sadly Killed it was stated wouldnt have liked what Happened ,,,,,,,
Reply:Hi she should have realised what was happening and asked the driver to move but violence is wrong!
Reply:He is just doing an unpleasant job.
Reply:Though he was insensitive, it is never acceptable to use violence, there are consequences on more than one level. Take the ticket and take the matter up with the issuing authority, don't allow the warden the satisfaction of feeling he has one over on you. The focus should be on the deceased and the relatives, not on him.
Reply:He was parked across the entrance to the f**ken car park. That meant nobody else could get in or out. I dont like parking wardens myself but this guy had parked somewhere he shouldnt have. However, I think he should have just asked the driver to move the car instead of putting the ticket on
Reply:wrong place wrong time.
Reply:There is no need to attack anyone for just doing there job. Even one as disagreeable as a Traffic Warden. Hope the people who attacked him get life and serve life.
Reply:I believe his ambulance was clamped and was delayed getting to A + E, that's why he's still recovering.
