I'd already read that elsewhere on the thread. Any person responsible for vetting blue badge applicants is only doing their job properly if they research an applicant's Facebook or personal web-page as part of the procedure. If I were to read that an applicant "enjoyed golf" I would take a very sceptical view of the application. Maybe he does deserve one - none of us here have any idea how many applicants there were in his borough, or how many parking places there are, or any of the other considerations that the council have to take into account before issuing badges. I'm just defending the so called "faceless bureaucrat" who some people on here are unjustly criticising for merely doing his job conscientiously.
