Car Park Bucket Attack
Furious Mother Takes Revenge On Parking Attendant

Furious mother, Julia Hazel, did what many have only dreamed of doing - emptying a bucket of slime over a car-clamping attendant.

Cheered on by other drivers, she exacted her revenge for her son's car being clamped in Portsmouth, saying that he had only left the car for two minutes to get change for the parking metre.

The video shows her pursuing the man around the car park at full throttle, with a concoction of porridge, frozen vegetables and yellow food dye, before pouring it into his van as a finishing flourish.

She told the Portsmouth News: "The situation was disgusting enough, but what infuriated me was overhearing the clamper saying, 'Are you going to get mummy then, are you?" to her son.

‘My son didn’t have the money to pay so I had to go down and hand over the money - or else they were going to tow his car away. I was sticking up for everyone who has been affected by the clampers.'

Hazel has been ordered by the police to pay £60 for the cleaning of uniforms and the van.

Everyday we all make a series of judgement calls that decide our chances at fate and whether we gamble in cutting corners.

Son
-- getting into car without change and knowing he has to park somewhere and pay
-- leaving car to get change
-- telling mum a_lie about it ?

Clamper
-- if it was only 2 minutes , did he not see the guy leave
-- using a modicum of latitude to not wait at least a minute or two
-- suing the mum ?

Mum
-- assault
-- continuing the_lie ?
-- taking the ticket to court if the story was true

Police
-- not charging the mum with assault

The wrong first judgment can lead to an escalation and a piling on --- which is all too common.

Do NOT put yourself into the position --- simple.
( and try not breaking the law --- no matter how small )

So when she gets to court, charged with assault or whatever, what will be her plea of mitigation?
A sad , very sad woman who must have had intent , as such a combination of ingredients must have been a bit hard to get hold of.
Every one caught by the parking people have an excuse, the reality is that they think the rules apply to everyone but themselves

My point exactly: Everyone caught out by the law for wrongful parking has a special excuse why they should not be clamped. But the same people would be up in arms if a judge gave a lenient sentence to another law-breaker. Hypocrites.

Study the video, and you'll see that this is assault in broad daylight by TWO people against this man. Can you imagine what would have happened, if the tables were turned, and he (a Black man) were to have chased a White woman around a car-park with a bucket full of slop, and vandalized her car?

The cavalry would have come rushing, a media frenzy would follow, and he would have been vilified and jailed without delay. What's good for the goose, is good for the gander. Meanwhile, the people in the black van egging her on should be ashamed of themselves.

"Are you going to get mummy then, are you?"

LOL!

What a thankless job.

That excuse is as old as the mountains, and probably one the attendant hears every time he does his job. Yet he is the villain, and the trashy mom ( pun intended) is the hero? This is a sad comment on society.

Wanted:  One (possibly former) clamper/locksmith who wishes to make money on the side removing clamps.  Bring your own balaclava and put LED lights around your license tags, please.

They should take up a collection to pay her fine.

"he had only left the car for two minutes to get change for the parking metre."

How about throwing the bucket over her son for getting her car clamped and probably lying to her about the circumstances?

Any wonder our children are growing up work shy and without respect for authority?
