		<description>If the councillors truly do have to also buy their own residents parking permits as Floru insists, then perhaps he can tell us why this freedom of information request has gone unanswered?

In fact the council rather than answer the question have broken the law. How many officers and councillors are prepared to break the law to cover up their own greed?</description>

		<description>I&#039;d also like to add that through other FOI requests we have been unable to find another council in the UK which provide their councillors with free parking permits.</description>

		<description>On the 22nd May I wrote to J P Floru and Cllr Harvey Marshall,
Cllr Mark Page, Cllr Ian Rowley, Cllr Angela Harvey, Cllr Susan Burbridge, Cllr Colin Barrow,Cllr Danny Chalkley and asked why do the eight councillors
listed above feel they are entitled to a Westminster free parking
permit? Although this free parking permit is supposedly to be used
when the councillors are conducting council business, why do they
believe they are more deserving of this benefit above say, more poorly
paid key workers who are often offered no assistance to park in the
borough? This is even though many members of the public might consider
the key workers entitlement to free borough wide parking more
deserving of this valuable perk? My second question is especially
interesting to me, given the enormous amount of extra scrutiny in the
media at present regarding politicians conduct, perks and how they
spend tax payers money.

Do you know not one of those councillors, including Floru, had the decency to even reply to me. Not one of them deserves to hold public office.</description>

		<description>J P Floru, get your facts right, you have yourself a free parking permit which allows you to park anywhere in Westminster, it&#039;s been proved and yet you still try to deny it. Hand back your free parking permit, if the pay by phone system is so fucking wonderful, and stop being such a hypocrite and a liar.
Peter Large (Head of Westminster legal department) told you to shut up, why don&#039;t your take his advice, you are a failure so why inflict your inadequacies on us, go back to Belgium.</description>

		<description>Westminster Councillors still have to pay for a residents&#039; parking permit like everybody else - and therefore their parking is not free.  And by the way, my mothertongue is not French.</description>
