I got a ticket for parking in a disabled parking bay - do I have to pay this?

I got a parking ticket today from a private parking company. They gave it to me for parking in a disabled spot. Do I have to pay this?

If you are not disabled and do not have a blue badge, yes. And it's richly deserved. Pleased to find a private parking management company that is enforcing this.
