Great news today that the government has issued new guidelines (although, when did we stop having laws subject to parliament and start having guidelines issued by anonymous civil servants?) to stop the menace of wheel-clamping. Let us all raise a glass to Ruth Kelly, who has put a stop to it.
This evil was always hated by everyone. It's worth remembering that all things pass. The government does dumb things, which we must endure. But once the civil servant who made it happen has been promoted and rewarded and passes on, his successor feels no obligation to continue it and gets rewarded etc for dumping it. Thus there is a natural term to these things.
When we see some bit of evident madness, let us remember that this too will pass.
