"We have zero tolerance", yet it took years for them to do anything about it.
Guy didn't get his kick back.
Just mark it as the law works very slow.
Its a pity also that the big boss only says that the land is APPARENTLY being used without authorisation.
Is it not HIS job to find out if it is authorised or not BEFORE ?
What a wanker.
Great call.
That unlicensed garage didn't happen overnight, its the local government problem that they didn't keep up on the property and as the person said he was doing that for years.
That's some serious negligence from the local government.
One at a time....... .. .
We need a means of anonymous reporting for these illegal garages so that residents can report such eyesores. I'd be investigating their taxes too, 😅
I rented out my house when working abroad, each time I was in the UK on leave I arranged with the tenants to visit the property. Firstly, to satisfy the property was being used within the agreed terms and secondly to arranged for any defects to the property not caused by the tenant were repaired.
I cannot understand why the Greenwich Council were not checking the garage block on regular intervals, especially as not all were rented, which is lost revenue to the council. The council would be liable for building repairs, yet they were not taking any care of them. Not evening checking the yard was kept clean. it's no wonder tenants and others dump stuff. Personally, I would be ashamed to admit what has happened at that site and senior council management needs to be taking to account on this mismanagement.
@@TheByardthey have had severe cuts to staffing and so much of this crap they can’t possibly keep up. They have a heavy burden of proof and then police need to be available to support the action. Everyone else has to be licensed and get a proper garage and equipment.
@@candacecurtis5739 Then they should sell the garage blocks off as other councils have done. Giving the adjacent council tenants first choice. I rented one just 2 mins from my house in Gloucestershire back in the 90s. A local businessman bought them and took very good care of them. renting was on the understanding a council renting tenant requesting a garage could mean me giving it up. But those who purchased a house, but no garage could not demand this.
I think they left out that the illegal garage wasn't paying proper tax lol. Then they didn't even charge the guy but crushed his tow truck 😂
What's up with crushing seized cars after 14 days? They don't have police auctions in the U.K.?
yeah i was thinking this is EXTREMELY wasteful. i mean they could dismantle and sell the vehicles parts in a legal market for cheap and displace the illegal parts market.
@@ToniMortonit’s a ton of work and storage when there is no room for keeping those around. It is a fantastic deterrent for those who can afford storage to actually pay for and get their vehicles out!
@@ToniMortontoo much work .too many car parts laying about. .
For a few cars, exceptionally, but generally no - it's not worth it.
@@jan22150 nahhh I think the job of dismantling can be tendered to people cos that is big business in other many countries. UK police should wakeup
Looks like the government or 'council' hasn't been doing their job for years if not decades. Those cars have been sitting there for years. What a joke they are.
If the illegal garage is there illegal and has been there for years then why haven't you done anything before
That’s the problem in the UK, NONE of these shows about criminals and dirtbags allow the public to see who they are! Shame is the worse punishment ever! And YOURE ONLY protecting the criminals ! Harming the good people!
What about the moron's who work for the council, and who's job it is to monitor these lands. Public tax dollars paid for this, and he has the cheek to stand there and spout what a great service they did.
The UK needs to make changes and update their Rules, Regulations , & Laws, the citizens get royaly screwed over there for every little thing!! But than again why would the high court make changes when they make a crap load of money off their people!!!! SMH This show made me realize that I never should move to the UK or even visit 😞😠
I bet that tow owners gonna start scrapping them after 15 days if he's allowed..avoid headache and liability for long term storage.
What a joke that guys been working out of those garages for years n years and they only decide to take action when i gets this bad absolute joke shouldve been shutdown years ago!!!
You'd think someone who could afford that long, expensive vehicle with no MOT would be organised enough to get an MOT before the previous one expires! 65 million other people manage it! There's no excuse - not the length of the vehicle, nor the time given before crushing it (which I think should be 48 hours, not 15 days!) MOT = roadworthy and how do you get it to a garage if it's not roadworthy? Tow it or drive it... And the odds are high that he'll drive it without tax, MOT or insurance.
You can drive to an MOT if you have an appointment, as long as it's the nearest and the shortest route.
So where can I buy that red 270z Datsun?
Imagine people just not wanting the government involved in every aspect of your life...
Only the guilty fear the government or police. National security is far more important than personal privacy.
@@NiteCreature666 lol, you mean like the "Patriot Act" you realize these laws are for the governments interest, not the citizens, right?
@@EveCole23 the government has the right to do what they want. National security is more important than personal privacy. We need to get rid of the constitution and all other laws that prevent the government from doing what it needs to do.
@@NiteCreature666 go live in china then there government can do what every they want to the people
@@NiteCreature666 no they don't but keep deep throating those boots i bet when they say get on the train to the "camp it is for national security you be the first one in line" SMH the constitution is to protect us from people like you in government if you don't like it and so want the government to control every aspect of your life then move to North Korea or China maybe even canada. your pathetic waste of oxygen
What a waste to crush the cars, why not sell them?
They do, If running, they auction. Depends on few things obv and location too.
That's what happens when boofheads are in charge!
In many other low cost countries, these cars still have a 30-40 year life span that can be added on them than crushing them
What I don't understand is the comment that was made for the charges is the local council has to pay for all this unless the offender pays the fines. Why don't they auction off all the cars weekly instead of actually crushing them, especially if they are drivable. Seems the council could recover all the money plus some for the people who don't pay for the recovery. Surely used car dealers would be willing to buy them. CoPart would make a killing in the UK.
Wow - I don't understand the system. Is it way too expensive to insure a vehicle in Britain OR are the drivers just that irresponsible? How is all this negligence, disrespect or entitlement bred? It appears to be non-gender or age specific. I would be happy to learn more with any replies. Thank you for this download - it is a real eye-opener!
In UK Insurance, it's up to the sky. I drive a wolkswagen Polo 2018 1.2 petrol 90hp. I have a full driving license for 13 years. I am 31 years old . Insurance = £1632/YEAR just for me the basic rate , if I have to add my wife will go up to £1900/YEAR + £50 road tax. I pay rent £1200/month . £300 bills/month. Food basket £450/month. Council tax £120/month .
You are looking from ... start from £100/month. For the simple basic mandatory insurance. And you are paid £11/h before tax
" It's been going on for years " ? No you're not doing a good job.
A wast of money, you didn't notice for five year that a derelict parking area for the residents was used to fix cars for the locals, and now the city will spend thousands to stop it. The bylaw enforcement could have given a fine, and said anything here after 30 days will be confiscated. It must be close to election time.
The paint was clearly on the van when it was loaded.
40 people, multiple enforcement teams, to deal with a garbage tip, the seriously super chief officer ,,wow,
Who avoids the ditch when crashing and instead drives straight into a Land Rover??? Clair does!...😂
This seems very intrusive. Also why can't you work on your own vehicle on your own land that doesn't seem to make any sense.
Not his land. He is living in government assisted housing. Also most major cities have many codes and permits to operate a an auto shop. He was also not working on his own car. Some people really just refuse to understand I guess
to car owners, send your car to a legitimate workshop, don't just because you want to save money, you have to bear a big loss. never send your car to illegal workshops like this they are not responsible if anything happens.
I certainly wouldn't want to come out with over 30 cops at my door! LOL
Why do these idiots crush the vehicles? Why not sell them and put the money back into the system?
Imagine the Ground Contamination, leaking Eventually to Puddles kids play in ,Water Supplies. Fly Skipping old Parts.
Van has paint clearly coming from behind the rear doors, claims police have damaged it purposely. Yeaaaah. Lol
Can't the vehicles not redeemed be sold rather than crushed if they are fixable or are operational ???
08:42hrs and 12:57hrs have a look at the white paint mess already on the back of that van. He knew it was spray paint and they have 360 degree video to protect them from liars like him. He is just an absolute grifter looking for a fight. He is a KEVIN!
Aw, that was a Nissan Juke. I have one of those.
A Nissan Puke?
So sorry...
Hahaha the motoring public in the UK are devious, aren't they.
Loosing you car over parking fines, the only thing worse is putting ppl in prison for not paying fines, while the Govt and their mates screw the country.
If you cannot afford to responsibly own a vehicle, You should be taken off the road
It had to be a joint operation light up the splif bro and don’t be a bogart checkin the gayraginz past the duchie do the left-hand side 😂
We did a good job says the guy responsible for leaving 18 garages empty for years(his own words) so glad i left the uk years ago, can varely visit england anymore.
If you are authorized to call a recovery truck, why cant you "boot" the vehicle while waiting?
Aren’t there any dental schools in England?
The real cracker is that dental care in England is free! I guess you get what you pay for.
843 in video, you can see something on the bumper that looks like what guy complained about
Omg its not even a range rover. Its an ugly can. LOL LOL
I can understand that they have to charge them for no tax or insurance but to charge em both for insurance because they swapped drivers to get through a unsafe thing they couldve let that go. Also y crush the cars wen revenue raising y not auction them at a police auction like we have in australia
It's a shame that it will be crushed instead of being sold on an auction
if you want to stay out of trouble, you must obey the lore.
Since I retired I drive slower like my grandpa did. I'm in no hurry to get to point b
The narrator ROCKS!!
Stealing their garages from your neighbours.
Working on the black and not paying any business taxes.
A liar and a thief.
Great job!
You have a cheek, standing on your pedestal and spouting about your land. In your own words, he has been operating out of it for years. You have been neglectful in your responsibilities to your tax payers. You have failed to monitor lands, paid for with their tax dollars, and have allowed it to decay, into rack and ruin. Heads should roll and jobs should be lost over this neglect.
why do vehicles have to be insured in the UK?
Same as in the US. If you crash into someone, your insurance will cover their damages.
Now the counsel needs to fix the hole place up
When you see Vehicles, literally, held together with Cable Ties & Strapping Tape on Motor Ways with Children? Consider the Worst Case Scenario .It happens.
What is the name of this
For the guy who ran the illegal repair my question for England is why is the property owner also not in trouble for allowing the property to be in such disrepair . I thought there would be better stsndards
I think the Council owns the land, so they probably exempt themselves from rules the peasants have to follow.
The man with the van with the outstanding tickets…..if I buy a used vehicle, I get it registered in my name and new license tags as soon as possible. The tickets follow the license tags not the vin number, or at lest in USA.
Different systems. He didn't seem to have registered any purchase, though.
Could you imagine if they tried to do this here across the pond?????????????????????????????
29:32 The locals appear to really appreciate their work lol.
What is a fly tip
illegal dumping.
Untaxed and no insurance vehicle should not be out on road running and drivers should be held accountable not just impounding paying fines it should be dealt harsher. So much resources just to get this guy but the untouchable smash and grab criminals are still out there.
What's untaxed mean
They don't just pay the inpound fine. They get fined for no tax / licence / insurance, etc, and penalty points, etc.
This don’t make any sense. They said they don’t tolerate people working in their land. If that was true, why were they working on the land for years before you said something about it.
24:10 they even laugh, no comment
They act like he is the #1 criminal in the country
chop shop.
In America, we have Parking Wars, battles at the impound lot, cars parked illegally, overdue tickets
So in the Uk I can’t have an engine hoist to change a motor out of my own car or truck? This is ridiculous.
Not if it isn't in an area with an appropriate collection system for any runoff etc. Home shops are allowed but you have to follow similar regulations to authorized mechanics IE no porous flooring, waste collection systems isolated from rainwater collection (i.e. no letting engine oil etc into the storm drains) etc. If where you are from you are just allowed to roll out your car in your drive and lift the engine out I would say that it is you guys that have irresponsible rules.
Of course you can, but not on someone else's land!
@@NibininThat's actually not correct at all - servicing your own car in UK, at home, doesn't make you liable to H&S regs apart from disposal of fluids, etc.
@@John-G I can only speak from experience in agriculture and we were forced to build a concrete pad to do any work on so that no oil, etc, would drip into soil. Maybe DEFRA is stricter than local councils...
@@Nibinin Because "agriculture" was your business so you have to comply with DEFRA rules. There are NO such rules for someone just working on their own car at home.
It`s eazy to control the little man and punish him. But the Post Office scandal is not a thing to getting it right!!
The problem is that they didn’t get their cut. It’s all about the money somebody is trying to make a living and they don’t want anyone to earn unless they get a their money!
Council land? Have them show a bill of sale for the land, if not, then it does not belong to the council. Saying anything else is typical government babble speak.
I smell something shifty going on; this bloke is full of sheet! $$$$ 🙈🙈
Con. Houses are for poor ppl no
🚶🚶🚶🚶🚴🚴🚴🚴🚩
30 people from diferent agencys.. how to make this as costely as we can...
They will just charge the guilty, whoever the accuse. Probably the poor public civilians.
@@mrdan2898 They are not going after some big sharks like the Post Office that did start some criminal activities for some 25 years ago and is still going on!!
So we give up half our wages to pay people to tell us how to live and what to do !!! Make that make sense
40:05 Cop: "The ideal thing to do is pull over and change the tire"!!
Me: ANNOYING 🙄😒
That's probably why they were driving to the tire shop, because they NEEDED a tire that they DIDN'T HAVE!!
and somebody was scared to drive on a flat.
And on top of the cops being nosy, they also took the time to run plates. All while driving behind two cars on the road!! That were trying to help each other!
If they paid for blinking insurance they would have free roadside assistance to get the car to have the wheel repaired/replaced
No time required to "run plates" - it's ANPR. The 'A' stands for "Automatic".
Everytime I watch anything from the UK...what a weak society in terms of enforcement. Police are laughable.
I wonder how they get anything done?
"laughable"? Compared to the US? 😂😂😂
just remember they just said in this video that in the UK your not allowed to fix your own vehicles, how tyrannical of them. I'm not talking about the stuff they took, I'm talking about what they said.
It`s simple a horrifying country England is if you are not aloud to use a garage as a garage. Total tyranny to the little guy but when it`s about some big sharks like the Post Office scandal then the PO is in charge and will investigate it self........ STRANGE to me.
They didn't say that at all, and that wasn't what he was doing. He was fixing other people's vehicles, not his, on land that wasn't his.
@@John-G Did they have a permit to open ALL the garage there...... did not think so.... maybe he buy some cars and fix it so not ALL are some others!! England is some Tory shit hole and will be.
@@John-G I understood it the same way as it is forbidden to do your own repairs on your own car and at least on communal property....... witch is way off what I can understand why and I felt they where as thugs.......
@@rvarsigfusson6163 That may well be what you understood, but it's WRONG. There are NO rules stopping you repairing your private vehicles on your private property. NONE. The only restriction is on how you dispose of waste (fuel, oil, etc). The rest is simply nonsense.
If it's "communal" property it's obviously very different as H&S rules inevitably and correctly apply as what you do directly affects others.
Sorry, but jumping on the outrage bus is totally misplaced, at least over this - it's absolute rubbish.
Edit: and inept and incompetent as the council staff were, they were 100% correct in what they did and should have done years before. The garages were council property, open access, and a danger to any children there as well as anyone else, clearly broken into and damaged by a local conman for a profit.
"Thugs"? Get real and get a life.
What a mafia in England.... people are not aloud to do their own cars it seems to me.
Maybe you'll understand it when you're sober.
@@John-G England is a terror state with cameras all over but it is not working when it can nail the police..... think of that!!...... Every single thing is under control as in ruzzia..... talking about ruzzia.... in 2018 was some 400 people arrested in ruzzia for writing on internet but in England there where 3300 arrest for the same thing at the same time..... think of that...... When sober I`m sad!!
@@John-G Have been in England several times and it absolutely garbage after all the Tory years..... an one thing Tory did right was getting Britain out of EU an hopefully it will be that way.
so someone trying to earn money is stoped help him
Further state suppression of private initiative and small, local businesses as the WEF has commanded.
They are working on car on COUNCIL PROPERTY. No clue what you are talking about.
That's not a small business....it's a sack of shite

so glad i can work on my car without some kind of government garbage here in the states..so many regulations, taxes, permits, I can understand why the public puts up with them, was just reading about the green energy laws where you cant own a gas car and if you do you pay taxes and permits on it? wow..just wow
