Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton attended an event in London on Saturday.  Parking her car in a bay on St. James’ Square, Clinton was required to pay the same £3.30 per hour fee that everyone else is required to pay for the privilege to park there.  She did not.  When the traffic warden tried to issue a parking ticket the Secret Service agents went nuts.  But, waving their arms and flashing their badges didn’t impress the traffic marshal.  He issued Clinton the ticket, anyway.  For parking illegally.  Like everyone else.

According to The Daily Mail,

This is the extraordinary moment that Hillary Clinton’s security staff got into an argument with a traffic warden after he issued her car with a parking ticket.

The Westminster City Council warden put an £80 penalty notice on the former US secretary of state’s silver Mercedes vehicle in Central London while she was attending an event at Chatham House.

The row was caught on camera on Saturday by photographer Greg Brennan, who said five of her guards were waiting inside a Mercedes van next to her car at the time because it was raining.

She had earlier arrived in a motorcade of five cars with around 10 security agents, Mr Brennan told MailOnline. Her car was parked in a bay on St James’s Square in Mayfair, which costs £3.30 per hour.

The warden then arrived and put a ticket on the car which had transported 65-year-old Mrs Clinton to the event, prompting her security detail to jump out of the van in protest, Mr Brennan said.

The photographer claimed he saw one of the agents angrily waving his arms and flashing his badge to the warden, who remained unflustered and continued to issue the ticket to Mrs Clinton’s vehicle.

Cllr Daniel Astaire, Westminster City Council cabinet member for business, told MailOnline: ‘Despite our traffic marshal being questioned by the secret service for just doing his job, he was in the right. 

‘The former US Secretary of State was parked for nearly 45 minutes without paying. I’m sure she will understand that we have to be fair to everyone, regardless of their status on the world stage.

This is a reflection of our government.  Not only does Hillary Clinton believe she is above American law, she believes she is above anyone’s law.  The elites of government believe laws are only for the commoners, including Obamacare.
