IS it any wonder we have the beginnings of a “push back” regarding parking space taxation? When I heard that the SNP had agreed to introduce this measure I immediately thought of Star Wars, and Admiral Akbar when he stated the obvious “It’s a trap!”

The Green Party must be desperate to work with a Con/Lab/Lib coalition Scottish Government (if indeed the Green vote is not wiped out in the next election), as that will be the outcome of implementing this legislation in any shape or form!

It’s not only unpopular, it’s a vote-loser, plain and simple!

Whilst councils controlled by Unionist parties “refuse to implement it”, I can safely bet that the moment the SNP fall from power they will be all for it, as a revenue raiser.

Derek Mackay needs to have a word with himself, focusing on deals with the devil.

The Greens had a policy once of wanting catalytic converters fitted to jet engines on aircraft ... you think about that for a moment. If you get it, you will laugh as I did.
