He added: "The police have visited multiple times and agree that there has been no breach of law. Facilitating mitigation has been offered on numerous occasions but repeatedly been refused by Mr Setterfield as he stated he did not wish to speak to his neighbours.
Whats best thing to do?

Gary hasn't talked to his neighbours. Gary doesn't want to follow the standard mediation route. Gary hasn't followed the council instructions for collecting evidence. But Gary does go to the council then ignores what they ask him to do. Gary does then go to the police but ignores what they ask him to do. Gary has now gone to the tabloids.

Obviously his neighbours are being bell ends but Gary seems to be a complete tt who actually doesn't want to fix the issue using any of the means that have been put in place to help protect people who get stuck in this situation.

If Gary isn't even willing to attempt either of the routes to resolution as laid out by the council or the police then Gary really should just shut the fk up, suck it up and stop wasting tax payers money and civil servants' time.

You resort to the tabloids when all official routes have failed not because you just can't be arsed to follow them to try and help yourself. Lazy, tt, pansy victim who is as much an arse as his neighbours.
This.
Are you sure the reason Gary hasnt spoken to his neighbours is because he fears he may end up with flat tyres, a brick through the window or the brake fluid someone else alluded to

Do people have a "£200 snotter" tucked away for this kind of thing or do they buy one in for each incident.

Is there a source specifically for £200 snotters with MOT?

I think i will get one just in case.
biglaugh Beat me to it! The internet hardmen are so funny biggrin
If only it were viable to be a car dealer specialising in £200 snotters that were road legal and MOTd etc, for just this type of situation.
Are you sure the neighbours arent already onto this one

This is the bit that's wrong

"then the curb at the end of their driveway is a valid parking space and they are illegally depriving someone the right to park there" Unless specifically marked out with white lines, there is no legal right to park anywhere on the highway. In fact, ANY vehicle parked on the highway is technically an obstruction.
Although people will pile in here, you are right. Vehicles in a parking bay, fine. If just on the road they are causing an obstruction.

A chap last year did attempt it, but in winter,and possibly not a great area. I'm in a little village on the coast surrounded by fields so much better conditions...

Plus, another PHer did it again, with a single sausage, and damage was extensive thanks to a badger - who kept coming back and digging nearby to see if there were more!
I missed that - brilliant!
Me too
Need to be careful or the cruelty to badgers police may get onto it
Poor badger hunting around for a trove of sausage truffles
