Thank you to everyone that donated to the campaign!

Campaign backed by:

Donate to the fighting fund

…either we all club together to raise the £25,000 for the appeal case now, or we will all be continually chipping in to a £93,000,000 annual bill… send your donation now, to aid the 2nd High Court case against Westminster City Council.

Read more details about what the fund will be used for and if you have any questions about it, feel free to contact us here. We have already submitted a claim to the High Court (read here), but this is phase 2 legal route in the battle to get rid of this bike parking tax.

£10 or the cost of a tank of fuel is what we are asking for, but if you can donate more the better! You can also choose whether or not you would like to appear on the “Donation wall” below with others who have donated to the legal challenge! There are three ways to donate, 1. via bank transfer to the campaign fund account, or 2. By handing your funds to a committee member at a planned gathering, or 3. Using PayPal (details below)

Donate via bank transfer (we will incur no PayPal fees)

Via PayPal (bank transfer above is better though)

  9. Boyo says:

    Well done Warren and the Committee! Fantastic news about the Appeal here’s a little bit more towards the fund. Despite the old school tie and the cosy clique of the oak panelled gentleman’s club, justice will prevail and truth will out. Onwards to victory

  10. Martin Price says:

    All the best in the fight. Even though I live in Newcastle and my 125 would never make it down to join the protests, I can see the benefits of the legal fight. I can’t donate much but hope it helps.

  11. Good luck with the fight. I ride my scooter every day and its annoying that my bike gets scratched to death in parking bays.

  12. Nicholas Kotarski says:

    Thought I had better top up the fund a bit as I haven’t been able to get to the ride outs. Just blown the cobwebs out of the exhaust so try to get to March 3rd ride. Must be a few bankers out there at the moment wondering what to spend their bonuses on who should be able to help top the fighting fund up. We must kill this stupid scheme.

  13. I can’t believe this is still ongoing. Are they ever going to back down!
