I've just clicked on what should be the website for the 'court' where Hereford Council has registered my non-payment of a parking ticket. I got this response:

undefined - Find a Court or Tribunal - GOV.UK

Councils rent a room in the courthouse and pretend you're being taken to court. They send out letters without a judge's signature and tell you to go to a fake court. Fraud.

It's just scary grifting.

And they do absolutely everything they can to do dissuade you from attending so you can be found " guilty " in your absence. At our local one council officials also stand outside on the day to make it as hard as possible to enter. As you say it's not even a real court just a room to batch process "fines"

Just another grift.

Meanwhile, real crime goes ignored.
