as a disabled parent I have experienced both parent & disabled "designated parking". The one thing that both sides would agree,
a there is a real need to develop more "designated parking" spaces, and
b the authorities should be doing more to eradicate the abuse of "designated parking"
The great advantage of uniting our campaigns is that we create a large voice rather than two smaller voices. I am involved with a disabled group in east lothian who are making the abuse of designated parking our number1 issue this year, as are other groups arround the country. The media seems to be portraying this as a contest between the disabled and parent and toddlers, when in point of view we are after the same thing.
We should also be allowing, tobe parents and the tempory disabled into the "designated parking" debate.
Lets get a solid voice and not be divided. Divide and rule would suit the powers that be, it would allow them to do nothing apart from talk. What do you think?
