Not at all! I just think yop've no more right to store your car on the public street than you do a hot tub, piano, etc.

There are about 7 million houses in England without some form of off street housing. Changing that will take far more work that wiring up ~2M lamp posts.

Also, to ban all parking on public roads is also infeasible aside from the houses with parking issues. Most city centre businesses would vehemently oppose such a move without replacement parking which would cost far far more money from the public purse.

So although I'm quite happy for people to have opinions, the consequences of enacting this opinion would be a greater waste of public resources than just allowing people to park on the side of the road (in most cases).

Well in practice you have a right usually to park your car on the street but not your hot tub because that's how things were designed and worked for decades and it's not going to change in a hurry. The public streets are controlled via the government by the public and they are mostly ok with it.

They are proposing to charge for parking spaces, like installing meters.
