Opinions divided on council cutting disabled badges

Sutton Council has slashed the number of disabled blue parking badges it issues by two thirds since the end of last year.

At the end of 2011 there were 6062 of the badges being used by disabled people in Sutton to allow them to park in designated bays.

But between January and September this year the number had fallen to 1846.
