Poll: Would you use a disabled parking space without a valid sticker?

What do you think about people parking in spaces they are not entitled to use?

THE UK’S CHANCELLOR of the Exchequer faced criticism in recent days after his chauffeur-driven Land Rover was photographed in a disabled parking bay.

While George Osborne stated he had “no idea” that the car had been parked in a disabled bay, an article by Liz Jones in the Daily Mail today excused the use of such spaces by people who are not entitled to them – provoking renewed discussion online today.

We’d like to know what you think: would you ever think it was acceptable to use a disabled parking space without a valid sticker/permit?
