What I'm suggesting is getting a top QC in Human Rights to give a current opinion. That's why I was interested in Perth. Any largish city would have enough plate owners to split the cost of an opinion, say 2 or 3 thousand ponds between 500 owners?
What usually happens is that if you go to a Council with a favourable opinion, they fold before it goes to Court. Even the cost of a full hearing, say £50,000 is only £100 per owner. Chickenfeed when the value of the plates may have been £50,000.
Someone should do it.
