Who's paying for the transport strike? (1)

As I opened my mail late Saturday morning I found a request from the St Julians local council to pay a traffic fine of €23.29 for parking on a double yellow line (the little area adjacent to the City Of London Pub, obstructing nobody, while I sipped the best cappuccino in the land at Café Ole ).

The camera must have caught me there on July 16 at 10.27 a.m. This was the same day that I had to cancel a radio talk in Żabbar because I had been stuck at the Marsa roundabout leading to the Addolorata cemetery as the main artery leading to the Cottonera and Birżebbuġa/Luqa areas was blocked illegally by buses/mini-buses etc. and the day after hundreds of buses/taxis caused mayhem in St Julians itself, having been parked illegally during the recent strike. Is the St Julians local council going to ask them to pay €23.29 too?

Is the Marsa local council going to demand the payment of €23.29?

Is there a budding lawyer in this country keen enough to fight my case when I ask the St Julians local council why I should be fined and these other are not?

I'm waiting.
