‘E’s merely pining for the fjords.
Just a scam the town runs to pull in revenue.
Follow the money. Bet the official is paid out of the money he collects. Just like revenue agents in speed traps, posing as cops. Fines collected should not go in any way towards paying the fine collector.
Wonder if the beer is any better.
Liberal fascism is great, isn’t it?
Absurd. These council officials are in need of a good tar-and-feathering to remind them who is the master.
Me thinks the council warden’s house needs to be TPed.
here in the south we call that revenue enhancement. We’d call that cop a revenue man. and we’d kill him.
UNgland...They stand around waiting for someone to get his teeth knocked out and then they fine the victim for littering. People who are stabbed and bleed get the same treatment.

Never visit the U.K.. Never, Never, never, never step foot on their soil. They’ve lost their bloomin’ marbles.
Imagine working in extreme cold as a laborer all day with Russians, Mexicans, and having a small cigar (outside) during your less than half-hour lunch break. Then the Aussie boss with a thick accent walks by, saying, “Damned smokers.” ...in the USA.
Hey.. something similar happened to me right here in the good old USA.
January, 1996 Was getting things in order to move away from NYC, walking down by Mott street in Chinatown. Went into a store to pick up a pack of smokes, opened it up and the cellophane top wrapper got taken away by the wind before i could even do anything about it.. just flew right out of my hands.
Within seconds a NYC Dept of Sanitation guy/wanna be cop came up to me and gave me a ticket YELLING at me about how hard his men worked to clean up that street earlier that day. I tried to explain to the guy.. he was not listening. I never litter, and this was in the middle of a windy snowstorm. Guy was a power tripping idiot.
I was pulled over in Arizona, and they were writing me a warning. Just before they were finished, they wanted to look into my mouth. They asked me when was the last time I smoked pot. I told them I wouldn’t answer. Then they wanted me to stand on one foot. But I couldn’t because I was nervous at that point, because I knew they were going to search my car. And I loan my car to these gypsy girls, and I hadn’t had a chance to sweep it for contraband since they last used it. They gave me a breathalyser, and I blew a zero. They cuffed me, towed away my car ($500) and threw me in jail for 24 hours. In the report, the cop said he noticed my eye twitch.
Charged with a DUI, and I was stone cold sober.
Trial is January 6th.
Wish me luck!
Our police and local councils are shocking. I wouldn’t spit on them cos it would be a waste of fluid.
