"Psst. Want a parking
permit?"
Battle residents have been warned that a con man has been seen in
the area offering
local residents extra parking permits to park in their own streets.
A local Neighbourhood Watch Alliance member told us: "Beware, he
is a slippery customer. His mode of operation is to gain your
confidence and your vote, screw up things, discover
he is unpopular because he's screwed things up then desperately try to put right the damage before you notice it was him who ballsed it up in the first
place."
