They were designed to accommodate elderly people with mobility issues along with wheelchair users!
It angers me that she feels she has an entitlement to shove her double-pram in what is a clearly-marked disabled bay.

I'm also angry that the Liverpool Echo think that this abuse is newsworthy.

Anyway, it's probably a good job she doesn't drive after all.
I guess she'd be the one parking her car in the wheelchair bay at the front of ASDA because it's her 'right'

My parents had a large family, including twins never owned a car and accepted the fact that when travelling on a bus they had to collapse the pushchairs and put them out of the way of other passengers. I was seriously considering voting Green at the next election, but if this is what the Greens are prepared to take up the gauntlet for I may have to reconsider. I suggest the prospective candidate familiarises herself with DDA legislation.

God help anyone on the 61/81s today they had to deal with Queens Drive hell, the lights off at Walton Hall Avenue in the morning first, then it was shut between the 5ways and Rocket heading towards Bootle between 1230-430pm, meaning the whole of Childwall/Wavertree and Queens Drive from the 5ways down to Aigburth, and the other way as far back as Derby Lane was absolute gridlock, some were using my road Bentham Drive trying to escape but there was no way to avoid it! Sheer hell. Ones heading towards Speke and Aigburth were according the Arriva app 42minutes at late by 4pm! Tough if anyone was going the airport.

Why does a road need to be closed for four hours for a traffic accident? Nobody was killed and injuries were minimal. And they caught the guy that they were chasing.

Hope this is temporary. Speke is no place for a cadet!
