TUV Leader slams Sinn Fein parking charge plans
01 April 2011
“Conor Murphy, having set his face on squandering most of his budget on a political project, the Dublin-Donegal motorway, now wants to raise funds by punishing motorists using provincial town centres, such as Ballymena, with parking charges.
“It seems not satisfied with encouraging out of town developments, this DUP/Sinn Fein Executive is intent on further squeezing town centre business by discouraging shoppers through hefty parking charges. With Stormont wasting hundreds of millions every year on useless North/South bodies, its own bloated bureaucracy and able to find £21m for the Maze Shrine, it is ridiculous that ordinary shoppers should be put upon to pay for their extravagance.”
