Protestors continue push for scrapping of parking meter deal

Former Minister of Culture, Youth and Sport Dr Frank Anthony (right) was one of several political figures who made an appearance in support of the parking meter protest.

The promise of a 50% reduction in the parking rates in the city did not dissuade supporters of the Movement Against Parking Meters (MAPM) from taking to the streets again for a third protest against the implementation of the parking system yesterday.

The protest saw a significant turnout, although the numbers had fallen compared to last week, when arguably more than 1,000 persons came out.
