As I was leaving Basildon train station this morning, I noticed civic enforcement officers at the station writing out tickets at the station. I asked a woman who was being written out a ticket what she is being fined for, she informed me she was being fined for smoking and stubbing out her cigerette on the pavement at Basildon train station. Maybe SBC could adopt this, and make more money out of the residents of Southend. I don't want to give Cllr Cox any ideas, however they will need more income to pay the excessive interests rates of the money they have borrowed!!!
