Harry Wainwright from The Oldfield Park Bookshop tells us how imposing a permit based parking restriction will affect his business, and the street as a whole.

All shop owners/businesses (in all cities & towns) need to join together and get evidence of decline of business since ULEZ and make a group action to sue local councils for their losses.

But it's a climate emergency everyone knows that and so therefore they have to do everything necessary to ensure our safety, the courts will surely agree with that I know our King will.

Bath has become unwelcoming for cars and, although having been a regular visitor for many years, it has now crossed off my go to places list. I have rarely been without spending on books, food and sometimes clothing, and fraternising the cafes, so this small bit of business is now lost to the traders there.
We all lose out, except the council, who's coffers swell with the fines and fees, which they no doubt waste on more woke and green rubbish. Just as well that I am getting on in years and my city visiting is less than it was.
Bath are not the only ones; it is like a contagion, with each council being afraid to get left behind in the race to prove who is greenest. (sorry about the slightly mixed metaphorization there.)

Fight back across Bath and remove the barriers where this truly impacts business, residents and allied parties, don’t pay your council taxes until they agree to a common sense solution to solve both parties concerns.
