Thinly veiled "I am richer than you and don't insult the poor" post.
Really nothing to do with the topic at hand, and even so, taking the post at Owenc's interpretation, people of a lower income taking even a short trip to mainland UK probably wouldn't enjoy these car parking charges.
Also, I don't accept the argument of "We used to pay so much so we can't complain if we've to pay more now". It's insulting really to consumer rights and having progressive industries.
