True enough I suppose it's just anyone could say they were in pain that is why they issue badges for genuine need, I can see her point but she needs to obey the law until she gets one.

That's not true, Dollface. Tesco has apparently started to fine customers...

"Tesco has gone a step further than persuasion - reasoning that if drivers are willing to ignore a polite request they are less likely to enjoy paying a hefty fine.

In a trial at one of its Leicester sites, drivers are fined £40 if they don't display a disabled parking badge, rising to £60 if they fail to pay within a week."

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/3485239.stm

If you are disabled and park in a disabled bay, you should display a badge. If you don't have a badge, get one. If you can't get one, you're probably not disabled enough to warrant having one.

""I wouldn't have been able to go in if I hadn't used it - my ankles had become so weak that I was worried I'd go over on them. But I was enjoying a day out with my son so was determined to make it in. "

but she was happy to drive a car, happy to drag her son into Tescos on her "enjoyable day out"

If she was that ill go home and do online or shop when you are fit


There is zero evidence she was ill that day or in pain

I have no idea if she needed a blue badge or not, but as Livia said, park elsewhere until she gets the badge if she is entitled to one.


Picking up on the highlighted bit of your quote LT, I wonder why she never used a wheelchair that day or a walking stick? As there was nothing in the news article to suggest she did.

Ah here's where i got it from - http://money.aol.co.uk/2015/05/06/yo...d-parking-bay/

"Although she hasn't yet had her application for a Blue Badge approved, it's not required by Tesco."

They're making it up

A rather more flattering picture than the one in the first post, too...

what everyone seems to be forgetting is that aside from anything else, tesco car parks are private land and so not covered by any laws whatsoever with regard to disabled parking, so she was actually perfectly within her rights to park where she did

The car park being private land makes no difference if disabled bays are provided and a badge is required by the company. There are zebra crossings in supermarket car parks, you are still required to stop if a pedestrian is on one.

I just wish I'd a grand for the 'disabled' people I know of - badges et al - who play footie every week and hit the dance floor every Saturday night.

I was waiting for just such a predictable response. I'm seriously beginning to think that certain Tibbies just DO NOT LIVE IN THE REAL WORLD or need to GET OUT MORE.

In any event I really DO NOT APPRECIATE it continually being implied that I am a liar just because I state TRUTHS on here which are OUTSIDE YOUR particular limited or sheltered experience.

I have owned a portfolio of 76 rented properties in my time - some of which I still retain - so I have had plenty of experience with rogue tenants.

I have had almost two decades of direct experience with all types and races of immigrants - good, bad and ugly.

I personally KNOW claimants with disgustingly large families who are in receipt of obscene amounts of benefits, and who could work if it were not for breeding babies like flies to different absentee fathers under a banal system which encourages them to do so because it rewards them far more than they could ever earn by working for a living and only breeding children which they can afford like the rest of us chumps.

I also personally KNOW MANY people who are in receipt of DISABILITY and MOBILITY BENEFITS who DO PLAY FOOTBALL, TRAIN AT THE GYM, AND DANCE THE NIGHT AWAY come weekends. I also know one guy who was awarded MOBILITY FOR LIFE, then THE DSS PAID FOR HIM TO TAKE A HEAVY GOODS VEHICLE DRIVING COURSE costing several thousands of pounds. He has, for a long time now been employed as a long distance lorry driver whilst also in receipt of full mobility allowance.

The rules HAVE since been changed but this guy is not the only one to enjoy this ludicrous arrangement.

I have NEVER reported anyone in my life apart from one particularly lying tenant who did a moonlight from a detached house I owned in Burnley owing me several thousands of pounds, but who - without my knowledge - continued to claim and receive housing benefits to the tune of several more thousand of pounds.

Even though I DID report this scumbag fraudster, the response from the Housing Benefit department was to 'rip the cheque up and bin it' with no thought for all the other payments he had ALREADY illegally received.

I do not like your attitude Cherie so I would appreciate it from now on if you ignore my posts as I will ignore yours - I am tired of being called a liar and having to defend my posts just because MY experiences are not YOURS.

Thank you.

She has a right to comment on your posts like you can on hers. Stop demanding that people ignore your posts because you can't handle being challenged, it's weak and it kills discussion.

the person is definitely a coward. if the person saw this woman parking (which she must have how else did she know the woman was fat and ugly?) then why didn't the person confront her on the spot?
