That was never a rule AKAIK at fort perch...parking was always free. Now it is private enterprise I assume they'd want as much space as poss...fair enough

Not just at Fort Perch.

Email received from Wirral Council 11 October 2006 "The off-street parking places traffic regulation order states that no vehicles should be left in a parking place for the purpose of sleeping or camping."
Email received from Wirral Council 9 September 2013 "There are currently no designated areas for parking of motorhomes and sleeping/camping on car parks is not permitted.

Those two e-mails refer to 'parking places' (does that mean places defined by lines?) and 'car parks'

How about on a street with no lined spaces? Is that OK then?

As the 2006 email says, they are about parking covered by the off-street parking places traffic regulation order.
I have list count of the number of times I have explained that there are differences between on street and off street parking orders.
I know I have linked to this article on many occasions.

They will no doubt be amongst the first to complain when the barrier is permanently closed.

People who continue to ignore restrictions - and worse, those who brag about it online, such as the guy who put photos of himself camping in his van on a Welsh beach when Wales was in lockdown, are directly responsible for increases in fixed barriers and increased restrictions, not to mention local hostility towards all in campers/motorhomes. In some places these increased restrictions stop campers/motorhomes from parking at ANY time of day or night, and the aforementioned beach now has large boulders in place to stop people parking/camping there.
