I've often thought there should be more spaces, plus those spaces broken into categories.
Some disabilities are invisible. These are not the ones I've a gripe with.
The use of old pops pass by others for personal use should result in a creative punishment.....e.g. your full leg is put into a cast for 6 weeks or you are forced to wear goggles that reduces your vision by 80%.
Disability is a terrible thing. Those with a disability need every assistance we can give them. Life is bloody hard. Those who abuse these benefits are deeply immoral and need to experience the lifestyle of those they block to truely understand their sin.

Over here it's not like the council still employs meter-maids. That way they would be responsible for any
misbehaviour and malfeasence like described. No, they farm it out. Then it's always "well, WE didn't write
that ticket". Makes sorting it out a right real pain in the posterior, because some of those 'contractors' are
pretty shady people.

I’m afraid that my response to that ticket would be one phone call to find out who to email. One email and forget about it. It will sort itself out, it’s clear.

after having open chest surgery (not heart related) my doctor offered a permit to me which I thought was totally uncalled for even of I was struggling for a while. The system is too easy from what I can see, giving me the permit was still not going to fix the problem.

Well, it says "Approximate Offence Time" is 8.59 so I would suggest the ticket issuer must have been going by another device to determine what time it was. Clearly the two devices are not time synched.
There is no contest that you will win, it's just a matter of how. I'd ring the Council first and see what they say. If you go to court it may be an interesting experience but it will take up much of your valuable time. You could sit there all morning before you get on, or you could find it is held over until another day due to something more urgent and time consuming. DAMHIKT!
Essentially you want the quickest solution with common sense prevailing. It's a Council matter so common sense may not apply. A magistrate will get a good laugh out of it though.

Just to update, I have asked for a review, with the council. As yet, I have not heard back.
Thanks for the input.

Well, the verdict is in:
Not guilty.
I am a free man.
..."This investigation has revealed that an error occurred with the issue of the notice...." etc, etc, very sorry...blah blah.
So, despite what Fencefurniture says(), there is a god.
Many thanks,
TM
