What A Load Of Bollards!

People who illegally park on their own properties without a dropped kerb are being targeted by Merton Council.
Oh...?
So far, the council’s enforcement officers have put up bollards on the pavement in front of 15 properties across the borough, blocking access for residents who have been illegally mounting the kerb and driving across the pavement to park on the hardstanding in front of their homes.
Hmmm....
Merton Council’s cabinet member for regeneration, housing and transport, Martin Whelton, said: “Not only are cars manoeuvring across pavements dangerous for walkers, overhanging vehicles can block the pavement for wheelchair users and parents with pushchairs.”
But....aren't your bollards doing that?

These petty little "I'm in charge" megalomanic tyrants are ubiquitous in local government; not least because they're otherwise unemployable.
