Residents, businesses and church-goers in Enfield are dismayed at Labour-run Enfield Council's decision to introduce parking charges on Sundays and bank holidays in Enfield Town.

It comes after the Council also increased parking charges last April.

But now a coalition of local shops and busineses, residents, churches and residents' associations have united in oppostion to the Council's policy, which they aregue is damaging local businesses and threatening jobs.

Nick is giving his full support to the campaign and urging people to sign the petition started by Conservative councillors. You can sign the petition here.

The paper copy of the petition is generating thousands of signatures.

The aim is to demonstrate to Labour councillors the strength of feeling in the borough and, for the sake of local businesses and jobs, force them to change course.
