I SEE the death-knell has sounded for New Brighton now in the shape of parking meters.

There are notices up saying the council intend to further rip-off the people and visitors of New Brighton by charging them to pay to go there.

I think this is a very bad idea.

We go there for many reasons and that involves going to the cinema, then to Morrisson's and Home Bargain to do some shopping, but I believe that even they are introducing a time limit on parking so I won’t be visiting New Brighton if these charges occur.

I will visit Harrison Drive and walk there but will find other places to do my bits and bobs and back to another cinema in Bromborough where the parking is free.
