ANGRY mum Julia Hazel got her own back on car clampers – with a bucket of sludge and a video camera. The 43-year-old saw red after her son’s car was clamped in Cosham, Portsmouth, and she had to stump up the £205 release fee. She filled a bucket up with porridge, frozen vegetables and food colouring to turn the mixture bright yellow. Then she went down to the car park, behind the Iceland store in Old Market Road, and lay in wait.
When a clamper from controversial firm City Watch turned up, Julia chased him round the car park with the bucket before emptying the contents over the seats of his van. Her friend Vicki Hamlyn, 48, filmed the episode on a video camera. [...]

‘At that point I saw red. My son didn’t have the money to pay so I had to go down and hand over the money or else they were going to tow his car away. Afterwards I realised something needed to be done.
