Lord Kuldip Sahota has condemned “scam” parking companies for targetting “innocent, unsuspecting motorists”.

Yesterday, the former councillor brandished the paper’s front page as he spoke passionately about the methods private companies use to “entrap innocent, unsuspecting drivers” with the latest technologies.

“Over the years I have run many businesses including shops, cafes and a car park,” he told the House of Lords. “Car parking business is a cash cow, my Lords. Compared to other businesses it has far fewer workers and is far more profitable. It is over a £3billion industry and there are well over 40 million cars on the road. I don’t know any other business that is so profitable yet is not properly regulated.”
