The family of the artist...
The family of the artist, who died in April 1973, agreed to his name being written on Citroen"s compact MPV at launch five years ago, as long as another word was also used. That"s why the Xsara Picasso badge was created. But, as the Xsara has been axed, bosses are thought to favour a totally new name.
It follows the case...
It follows the case of Kevin McGuire, who parked perfectly legally in Bury, Greater Manchester. However, an NCP parking employee doctored a digital photo"s date to make it look like he"d broken the law. Mark Littlewood of civil rights group Liberty thinks it raises questions about what other camera images could be changed: "Tampering with evidence to secure a conviction is a serious offence, and one that should not only lead to a disciplinary action but also a criminal action," he said.
Paul Watters of the AA Motoring Trust added: "Parliament is legislating on giving parking attendants more power to enforce box junctions and no right turns. How can that continue when they can"t even show a degree of competency enforcing parking?" The NCP maintained this was an isolated incident.
