Those with problems including dementia, autism and anxiety disorders triggered by travel or parking difficulties will be able to apply to councils for a badge.
So, you go to the doc and say, I couldn't get a parking space the other day so I had to walk a couple of hundred yards to the bookies. I got stressed about that, I need a blue badge. Yeah, that's OK old son I'll sign your application form.
This latest shit will of course not get abused will it!? And btw, when did having anxiety stop you walking.
Is there no end to this PC bollocks
It ain’t that simple, Zam.
You don’t just walk in, pick up a form and have yer GP rubber stamp it.
One has to qualify for rhe mobility component of the DLA in order to touch for a Blue Badge.
And there are very rigorous criteria needed to qualify.
Sorry to srymie your rant
But this far from “PC bollocks”....this us about a compassionate society looking after its most vulnerable brethern.
