On Friday 19 July myself and friends will undertake direct action at Leeming Bar against the unenforceable Leeming Bar Industrial Estate and surrounding areas Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO).

Bob – aka Uncle Albert

Unenforceable PSPO

The PSPO is unenforceable for many reasons. These include:

1. The PSPO states “overnight” yet overnight is not defined.
2. The signage, which must be on the public highway, is unlawful as it is not permitted signage within the Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions 2016.

Motorhomers’ Invitation

I am delighted to be joining up with my motorhome friends old and new to stand up against the corrupt and incompetent Hambleton District Council. I am sure that the great Bob, aka Uncle Albert, will be cheering us on in spirit. This one is for you Bob.

The direct action will simply be an overnight meeting to discuss the PSPO.

Please email info@island-man.co.uk or phone 07826 439101 if you would like to join us.

Full Transparency

I have given Carl Les and Steven Lister notice of our direct action. Carl is an HDC Councillor for Leeming Bar and Leader of North Yorkshire County Council. Steven Lister is  HDC Director of Leisure and Communities.

I will endeavour to text Carl our exact location when we are in situ.

This will allow HDC adequate time to issue Fixed Penalty Notices (FPNs) against us. If HDC issue FPNs, they will be unenforceable in a court of law. In addition, to issue the FPNs in the full knowledge that they are unenforceable would a fraud.

Any FPNs issued will be challenged successfully through the courts.

Door Remains Open

My door remains open to Carl and Steven to resolve the impasse.

End Of The Line

I would like to dedicate the following to Carl and Steven.
