HOW I agree with Brendan O’Brien (South Wales Argus, October 21), you are absolutely right in your letter. This is a council that in the past has threatened to prosecute cafe owners and newsagents who put out chairs etc on the pavement, citing the very reasons you say in your letter. The only thing you got wrong is that its the police who should be blamed for not taking action, namely the police, the same police who allow a mass protest on the M4 (how can they find so many police on a Sunday?).
This illegal parking is outside the bus depot, Corporation Road and Mulcaster Avenue, to name a few places.
