Another thing you will have to contend with is a bureaucracy bordering on the lunatic. The police force, in particular, seems to employ only the brainless and generally incompetent.

About three weeks ago, I found my car had been clamped whilst parked in a public parking area. When I contacted the police, they claimed the car was on their "wanted" list and they then proceeded to pick up the car and take it to a pound. They then conceded that all this happened due to a "computer problem" at their end, but I still do not have the car back owing to a sheer endless streem of paperwork that has to be completed.

I have yet to hear a single word of apology or any information regarding how victims of such a miscarriage of justice are compensated.

Folks, this place is the proverbial sh1thouse.
