Cruel parking fine destroys cancer patient's dignity

I observe the parking camera enforcers, who operate like thugs, lack any semblance of human decency or empathy, caring solely about extracting money at any cost. Their response to my situation—forgetting to input my vehicle registration while undergoing frequent, critical medical blood tests—was heartless. Despite my serious medical condition causing medication side effects like anxiety, confusion, and memory impairment, and the receptionist being fully aware of my circumstances, these ruthless individuals showed no compassion. When I provided proof of my condition, their only concession was reducing the £100 fine to £20, insisting that my medical situation was irrelevant and no excuse for not following their parking regulations. Since when does having cancer warrant being penalized? I refuse to pay them a single penny and intend to file a complaint with the Equalities Minister under disability discrimination laws. It's noteworthy that the staff have now added signage at the entrance, reception, and pharmacy—something they never did when the cameras were reactivated. After enduring the hardships of standing in rain during COVID, with elderly patients in wheelchairs suffering in freezing conditions, the least they could have done was provide clear notification. If there were an award for inhumanity, CIVIL ENFORCEMENT would undoubtedly win gold.
