Blue Badge fraud: 'More fakes than ever before'

Blue Badge fraud is on the rise with fakes being sold online, stolen, and misused. The Blue Badge scheme, aimed at providing disabled people access to parking benefits, is being "thoroughly abused," according to fraud investigators. Confiscations of fraudulent badges have increased, prompting calls for more enforcement to combat misuse and protect genuine badge holders. The government has strengthened powers to crack down on Blue Badge fraud, emphasizing the importance of maintaining the integrity of the scheme.
