Wayne Fontana back in Nottinghamshire for first time since jail

Sixties pop idol Wayne Fontana is coming back to NottIngham for the first time since he finished a six-month stretch in Nottingham Prison.

"PRISON was the most horrible experience of my life and the most unecessary" says Wayne Fontana  real name Glyn Geoffrey Ellis. It could have all been sorted if we'd had a un-corrupted judiciary.

He was jailed in 2007 for setting fire to a bailiff's car, after  they tried to take an extortionate, illegally given parking fine, twice. The fine was posted on his car in Drury Lane, London, Sunday May 7th 2006

It clearly stated on the parking meters, "No charges Sunday and Bank Hollidays. It was a Sunday.

He even got three passing  American's to read the sign with him, to make doubly sure he wasn't mistaken.

Wayne then tried to explain to the two inforcer's that it was Sunday and there was no charge for parking that day, but they pretended not to speak English, mumbled and walked off.

Wayne said,"It's difficult to find an English speaking parking meter attendent in London n'ourdays."

This followed Wayne's long running battle, with what he believes is a totally out of control rogue government, judiciary and police.

All his troubled started, after a long-running battle over an illegal bankruptcy order that was taken against him, by HMRC (late) HMC&E in 2005.

The government didn't like it when he fought them and won. Everybody is suposed to know, "You can never beat the system." Fortunately for us, and our future liberty, Wayne's not everybody.

"I got beaten up in the excersise yard of Nottingham prison after I spotted some class A drugs in a sock which had been thrown over the prison wall, I was attacked by six inmates. They kicked me in the head and I had the top of my ear ripped off and my glasses crushed beyond recognition. Guards and nurses warned me to keep my mouth shut about the inccident. So much for British justice."

There are more drugs, mobile phones and corruption inside Nottingham Prison than there is on the outside"

Fontana says his struggle to overturn the bankruptcy order and clear his name has forced him to quit Britain for a new life in Spain, where he now lives on the Costa Blanca.

"I just love it here," he told me from his home in the coastal resort of La Zenia.

"I am 64, semi-retired and working two pubs a week, and I'll keep fighting to get rid of our criminal politician's in Britain and the European Parliament. I can't think of a better way of spending my twilight years."
