Watched it last night, thanks for the heads up. What a horrible way of leeching from the public... Thank god for that motorcycle action group warning people. I wish some of those drivers that they helped paid a contribution to them for their good work with the amount they helped save from the fines.

Why did they bother wearing masks while riding bikes with number plates? There's more than a few oddballs in the show. That chap who sets out to get tickets then fights them, who does he think pays for the council's legal costs defending the cases he brings?
I wake up every morning with a smile upon my face,
My natural exuberance spills out all over the place!

I think the point with masks was to show they are an activist group rather than hiding their identification...

REDCAR is a bugger or this and the town is losing shops and tourist.
charge to park at £1.50 for an hour and £1 for every hour after that.
how the hell can a family afford that just to take the kids to the beach.
hardly any amusements. they spending millions revamping the sea front.
one time at the top there was loads of fishing boats which folks like to see,they had most of them removed.
theres bugger all there now. the council should take a look at Whiteby and Scarborough and see how they do things.
If I wanted to make a life-long career out of
working with the mentally retarded I would
have opened a Harley Davidson Dealership
