Just shows you one rule for Surrey Police! Another example of SP breaching Disability Laws - they just think they are above it

Surrey Police have commented on my blog! http://bit.ly/176BG4

The officer should not have asked you to delete the photo and it's right for you to draw attention to this. You are not the first person to raise this and it is something we are addressing through training and a booklet. Thank-you for responding politely

Not sure about the facts but imagine this...you're in a building getting the shite kicked out of you and someone kindly calls the fuzz, they duly arrive and this is the only parking space available....what would you rather the officer did park there and c

Was there a doughnut shop nearby?

Totally right to feel ashamed of herself - that's dreadful parking! ;D

(snigger, snigger) And not even parked straight! Had she been drinking?

It's nice to know that the police are taking diversity seriously.

Genius parking all round. To the stocks with her!

hehe - nice one ;)
