Irish university students leave notes begging not to be clamped as they have nowhere to park

Students at a leading university are being forced to leave notes on their car windscreens begging clampers not to clamp them as they can't find anywhere to park despite having paid €40 for an on-campus parking permit

Maynooth University has employed German clamping company Apcoa to patrol the car parks on its campus but angry students union bosses claim that they are being forced to abandon their vehicles in the first available area as there are not enough spaces to meet the need.

An additional car park area is under construction but is weeks from completion.
