Parrot in parking row


Officials in Greece are being challenged in court after they issued a parrot with a £320 parking ticket.

The local council in Patras say his perch is obstructing drivers because it partially blocks a metered parking space.

But Coco the parrot's owner, Lambros Michalopoulos, says the bird will die if it has to move back inside.

Neither side is backing down so now the dispute is going to the courts, reports the BBC.
Patras's Deputy Mayor Spiros Demartinos is embarrassed that Coco's plight is attracting international attention.

"Is it bureaucratic to be concerned about the parrot's safety?" he asks. "The parrot's security is of paramount concern to the council."

The dispute is heading to the palace of justice where Mr Michalopoulos is hoping it will be laughed out of court.
