    Anybody who’s ever dealt with these companies knows exactly how scummy they are.

    Pervious governments kept saying they’d do something about it, even announcing price caps (I think to £70 but I can’t remember), but it would always be silently scrapped after all the positive headlines of the brave Tories sticking it to private parking companies had done their job.

    I suppose the good part of having a Labour government is that if they were to announce this and scrap it, it would be in headlines for a week, so they’d be a lot less likely to do it.
