Yes and I am not even in that council (nor own a car), but the thread was about one person considering running for council on that platform, which is also ok.

Yes and they do - in elections.

Yes, but nowhere to the same extent and not another company holding your card details and other data.

You don’t have to show a ticket with our council’s machines, and you can also give up your personal, payment and historical data to save yourself walking 2O metres if you wish. Both options can and do easily co-exist.

I don’t carry much cash either - I find card/phone payments convenient - but believe systems should take all forms of payment where practical. My line is at other companies holding my personal info unnecessarily.

I don’t own a car, but if I did and i had to pay council for parking, I would object to a private company holding my card details and presumably taking a cut.

These are sweeping statements. It is not easy for everyone. Most is not all, and to be in a minority is also normal. There are many circumstances where people may not have access to banking, or phones, or phones with apps or just find cash easier.
