Army hero who lost a leg in Afghanistan denied a disabled parking permit by council bosses 'because he might get better'

Lance Corporal Johno Lee has clocked up £800 in fines for parking in disabled bays in his home town of Newark, Nottinghamshire, on days when he uses a wheelchair or feels unable to walk very far.

When he first applied to Nottinghamshire County Council for a blue badge, he was advised he was young and 'may get better'.



When I first read this, I wondered if this was one of those towns where they all married their relatives. That may explain their stupidity.
