| 101 | Gregory | Lauder-Frost | It is a simple fact that parking charges are just another indirect tax on the people of England. It is a scandal that patients and their families are effectively being taxed because they are are ill and their families too for wishing to visit them in hospital. Like it or not this is the age of the automobile and unless one is served by metropolitan public transport the chances are that you will require a car to get to hospital. Should you be taxed upon arrival? |

| 103 | mallory | wober | I'm not quite sure how one would prevent abuse of the space by those who park not for hospital purposes - to commute or shop - suggestions welcomed ...(there are lots of highly paid people within the government who spend their time thinking up absured and wicked schemes - let them think up something good for a change ... |

Please scrap the Hospital parking charges in England. It is not fair.
Kind regards,

| 110 | Delphine | Gray-Fisk | About time, too! Have always thought it iniquitous to charge for hospital car oarking |
| 111 | Lee | Consterdine | Sometimes, it's as if some people think no one in England will notice what's going on elsewhere. |
| 112 | john | broomfield | This island is awash with money. Unfortunately it is nearly all going to the wrong people. |
| 113 | suzanne | yager | there should be free and adequate parking outside hospitals. Why should the sick be further penalised? |

| 115 | Gerard | Batten | As the UKIP MEP for London and the UKIP Candiadte for London Mayor (1st May 2008) I am delighted to sign this petition. |
| 116 | Donald | Beadle | Just one example of how England is being unfairl governed by direct rule of UK Government |
| 117 | Ian | Robinson | These parking charges fine people who are either themselves ill or visiting the sick. |
| 118 | Bernice | Moss | As a cancer patient I have found the cost of parking 3 times a week for up to 6 hours each time very hard. I am unable to work and also unable to get financial support for this. |
| 119 | Alexis | Hira | These charges are nothing short of a national disgrace. A defrauding of sick people and health workers who treat them and pay taxes. The people who own and work for these car-parking firms tend to be dodgy, with many having criminal backgrounds. They are the lowest form of scum imaginable. |
| 120 | Roger | Knight | I'm sick of the way "public" service providers in England prey on the public and the fact that Wales and Scotland can legislate for themselves whereas we English have less favourable conditions imposed on us by a UK government which relies on Scots and Welsh MPs. |
| 121 | paul | roomes | on a recent visit to pick up my wife and newborn child at liverpool womens hospital it cost me two pound to park for 30 seconds.scandalous.this is a fixed amount for entering no matter how long you stay all in all it cost me 16 pound over 24 hours |
| 122 | Mark | Keiller | It is Absolutely disgraceful that charges were ever imposed upon the people who officially paid for the hospitals and parking facilities anyway through taxes. this is just yet another hidden tax to raise revenue to pay for the excessive amount of "managers" that now appear to be needed in hospitals when they actually provide no stability what so ever. |
| 123 | Mike | Cunningham | |
| 124 | John | Brough | If Hospitals in Wales can afford to scrap these charges and the Government provide Free prescriptions from NHS, there should be parity across the UK. |

| 128 | Alfred | Rothwell | What do you pay your tax for? |

| 130 | Robert | Southgate | The sooner this disgraceful practice ceases the better. People visit hospitals for a reason and to penalise them by charging for parking is utterly wrong. |
| 131 | Michael | Knowles | Taking a person to hospital, visiting a person in hospital, working in a hospital, these are all part of the National Health Service, paid for out of taxation. It is vicious and it is wrong to make money out of illness. It is vicious and it is wrong to use the kindness and the illnesses of people to make money. And now that Wales has banned this vicious practice, why not England too? What sort of Union is the United Kingdom? why is it always the people of England whether it is prescriptions charges or university fees that are forced to pay? Under this government the coungtry has lost its way. I am ashamed. |

| 133 | Ian | Wells | We only go to hoapital because we need medical attention, why should we be charged for parking when we pay into the NHS all our lives |
| 134 | Sharon | Close | agreed. |
| 135 | Gerry | Richards | |
| 136 | Roger | Bloomer | |
| 137 | Richard | Paine | It's a disgrace to charge the sick and disabled for parking. This government has lost its moral compass. |
