Shame Brown was allowed to vandalise the economy for so long. Living standards will suffer for a generation.

"The DVLA is self-financing and holds reserves of more than £180 million"

they charged me £20 to get a replacement card and sold my name and address to a parking firm. It then took them 6 weeks to complete a change of ownership which they

considered quick. Also every car buyer pays £55.00 to the DVLA for initial registration.

Can't they automate the system to a simple identifier, type approval and owner. Half the certificates are stolen blank copies with real watermarks and nobody knows the difference.
