Letter to the editor: In recent years Bexley Council has seen the motorist as a blot on the borough’s roads.

It did away with parking meters in Bexleyheath and now those spaces stand empty with a subsequent loss to traders.

Now we have the debacle on Good Friday, a bank holiday, with people legally parked being ticketed by contractors.

I hope, when it comes to election time, regardless of their political views people will remember it was their present councillor who gave the contract to these clowns.

Perhaps the time has come to show councillors they are responsible to us by voting them out.

BARRIE LINFORD, Bexleyheath
