PARKING COWBOYS : TWO OF ITS DIRECTORS ARE HEARD TALKING IN A BAR

- Sorry I'm late .......I got held up in a queue at the garage
- Oh that's alright......there's the big deal in being late ....it happens all the time.......that's life
- True.... and about that Beavis result ?  Such a god send.....we can fleece motorists now 
  with impunity. The gravy train is up and running for sure
- Yes......those Supreme Court judges unbelievably fell for the argument that the £85 fine
   needed to have a deterrent effect
- And what's more... they believed fines up to a £100 were commercially justified and not
  manifestly unreasonable
- Amazing.....because let's face it we don't want motorists to be deterred from overstaying
  ......heavens above.....we want them to overstay in their hundreds .....better still in their
  thousands
- Quite right  the sole purpose of the fixed sum penalty of £85 is to catch out the vast 
  number of motorists who arrive back just a few minutes after the free parking period has 
  expired .....maximising our profits to unprecedented levels. If these poor sods were better 
  time keepers our income stream would dwindle to nothing . And we don't want that ....do 
  we? 
- No
- The deterrent argument was without doubt a wonderful smokescreen to justify our rip off
   charge of £85 ..... hiding the fact that our true goal was to make easy money off the backs 
   of motorists who constantly lose track of time 
- Oh happy days
- Yes happy days indeed
