Fears over free parking
Updated on 05 January 2009
Plans to grant Christians free parking in a town could be blocked because councillors fear causing offence to other religions, it has been revealed.
Tewkesbury Borough Council in Gloucestershire is considering scrapping charges for churchgoers throughout its car parks on Sunday mornings.
