All is not seems with this individual.
He was never in the SAS and actually verbally assaulted and intimidated the Traffic Warden.
There have been a lot of revelations in the local paper about this incident and in fact it is now being questioned if he is disabled.
Below is the link to the local news report:

WHAT A LOAD OF TOSSERS
22.01.09, 11:49pm
I know they are just doing there job, but what a tw*t. I had a problem parking at a pay and display car park the other week, the car park was very full, and the machine near my car was out of order, so i had to walk about 100 yards to the other side of the car park, when i got back, there was a parking warden with a trainee, the trainee said excuse me, is this your vehicle? I said yes and here is the ticket (I had been gone 2 minutes) he said you are lucky, we nearly booked you then. Its not as if I could have got a ticket on the way in, i didnt know if there was any spaces available, and the pay and display is right next to double yellow lines, no doubt had the car been on those for 20 seconds I would have a letter through the door the next week. WHAT THE FU*K AM I SUPPOSED TO DO YOU BUNCH OF RETARDS !!!!!!!

These Traffic Wardens are out of control like the Met, as they are now all Civil Enforcement officers as well (PCSO's on steroids),
we better beware before Gordo and Jaqui Spliff issue them with Tasers and CS spray. As Mr Khan picked up the ticket there was no physical evidence, and if it was subject to common law rather than fixed penalty, there was no "mens rea" or criminal intent. The only crime was the spiteful warden and equally incompetent council officials wasting public money on something that any reasonable magistrate would chuck out . They should pay Mr Khan costs out of their own pockets.

What emerged very clearly from your example was the ATTITUDE of those wardens. Our I.Q. on a general level sucks. I only mentioned the female aspect because they seem to carry their sex war with them out into the world. I had a motorhome, it was really nice, and decided to cruise the southwest for the beauty and the ambience. We were deterred by every council, everywhere it was pay, pay pay. Even to stop by a shop for five minutes. I got sick of the English attitudes and went on a ferry to France. What an unbelievable difference. Parking free. Toilets with showers. Welcomed everywhere. It was like "hey, we're all grown up here". Spain almost as good. Portugal in some ways better. One has to travel to fully understand how petty and silly this country has become, and the danger is - it's becoming so ingrained we may not change for generations.

THE ROTTEN VENAL GOVERNMENT HAS ITS PRIORITIES ALL WRONG...
22.01.09, 7:21pm
Personally,I could,nt care less if he wiped his ar** with it and stuck it to our leaders head...this vile government has all the time to persecute litter crime while rewarding the criminals who have ruined our lives and our country,I would say that this is... "The betrayal of a trust or confidence; breach of faith" treachery. TREASON
No one voted for a government that is hell bent on destroying them.

TO BE FAIR... HE WAS LITTERING.
22.01.09, 5:39pm
He actually discarded the ticket in a public place!
Now we know what to do... Stick it in a private place...
MAYBE WHERE THE SUN DON'T SHINE???

I never cease to be amazed by the mentality of the amount of sociopath missftits that want a job that gives them nothing but daily abuse and stress.Like traffic wardens,their only perk is that they caused some unhappiness to normal people.
How proud their families must feel !

Good timing 106dl ... I have been working in Frankfurt, i have done so on many occasions, by my ready reckoner it's about 400 miles from Dover ... it might as well be as far as the moon? my point is this , i was in Frankfurt city centre driving around looking for a parking space , after about 10 minutes of driving around the block i spotted a clear space, whilst parking my car a young traffic warden ' informed' me that if i parked in that particular spot he would have to give me a ticket , fair enough i thought and thanks for the warning, now imagine this happening in good old blighty .. the young man them told me to hang on and got on his radio to his colleague and after a couple of minutes informed me that his colleague ( a young lady) has noticed a clear spot around in the next street which was legal to park .. i drove to the parking spot where the young lady warden not only waited for me, but saw me into the spot .. and then as the Germans would say all was Alles Klar ( okay) .. amazing? would that happen in good old tolerant and free England?.. i don't think so , do you? how has England become so intolerant as to get into the situation where and OAP can be dragged to court for such a menial affair ... as 106dI has pointed out .. Nazis . and another point just how low and intolerant is the UK going to become in the future? and can it become any less tolerant?

Isn't it marvelous officials can prosecute a disabled war hero for dropping litter but NOT all the morons who just chuck away their late night takeaway packaging, I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that they might get a punch on the nose?

ARE PEOPLE MISSING THE POINT?

The " person" who made the. charge against our disabled hero was a female. A wardenette. One of our feminist warriors. One day the Brits will wake up to what's going on on all fronts of the demolition derby of negative and destructive influences that thrive under the guise of "political correctness".

LITTER EVERYWHERE

If this is the attitude of the Litter Gestapo, they should come to the road where I live on a Wednesday morning. The dustbin wagon comes for the fortnightly collection, the dustmen hook up the wheely bins and take the rubbish. The wind blows and plastic, paper etc. blows out of the dutbin wagon all over the road. This isn't picked up but left to gather in the hedge at the bottom of the road. These are the gits that should be fined, not some disabled guy who put his life on the line for the Govt.

He picked up the ticket straight away!!......Magistrates quite rightly threw it out of court for being the complete waste of time & money it is, that's 'socialism' for you.
But the NuLiarBore have to keep creating these jobsworths none-jobs and someone has to pay for them!....that's NuLiar job creation for you!
Burglars, muggers and vandals are merely ticked off with a street caution!!!!...............'tough on crime',.........these socialists make me puke.
