    Wish you were here?

    Fixed speed cameras in Swindon will be switched off on Friday, making the borough council the first English local authority to abandon their use.

    The town has five cameras, which will be covered over during the day.

      "They're not just another tax"

      "They're definitely just for safety"

      "No they are not a revenue generating exercise"

      The Conservative council say they cost about £320,000 a year to maintain, with very little of the revenue generated returned by central government.
      Lying bastards.

          "Wish you were here?"

          Having had the pleasure of working there for a few days, absolutely postively not.

            They're being switched off because the police could no longer stomach looking at the mugs of the inbreds who were caught speeding.
