He WANTS us to keep driving into London - which is why prices are pitched at a level that people can just about stretch too. Make it £100 instead of £25 and that would really sort out the men from the boys.
Actually, that would be a great little experiment that could probably oust the guy very quickly. EVERYONE on the buses, tube, rail, bikes, and leg-power; let's see how quickly the whole infrastructure breaks down.
no road tax and zero congestion charge. The range isn't great on electric cars but you can install a generator in the boot or on a trailer. As long as the diesel or petrol generator isn't directly driving the wheels but charging the batteries the vehicle is considered emission free .
I do believe that something has to be done about congestion on the roads of the UK in general. If hitting people's wallets is the only way of going about this, then so be it. It WILL be effective.
Getting really annoyed about the crass misreporting of by lazy journalists who parrot "4x4" and Gas Guzzler".

RE..POST 87, above........
Certainly an option worthy of consideration methinks...............I like the sound of that.
Trouble is, if we all did it, goalposts would be moved to suddenly include our "new" cars.

How about what governments SHOULD be doing - i.e. Predict and provide. In other words build more roads to suit demand, like they do in every other developed (and some undeveloped) country.
The only REAL way to cure congestion is to disallow anybody to register a new car unless you scrap an existing registered car. Thats the only way to ensure the non-growth of cars on our roads. I cant see that being very popular with the car manufacturers, but I cant see any other way to curb the continual growth of car numbers.
