Congestion Charge (London)

[DonnyMac]

The threshold for exemption from the congestion charge is dropping from 100g to 75g of plant food, guess what that means.........

Prius people will have to start paying the congestion charge too + most everyone else who are not in a 100% electric vehicle apparently.

A classic fire engine is looking more appealing by the day......
I guess the bottom line is we need to wake up to the fact that Ken, Boris and the rest of 'em (who conveniently get conveyed about the place at public expense) won't rest until all private vehicles are banned from within the M25.
Why is congestion being related to emissions though? WTF is the LEZ for?
Makes me ever more suspicious of the entire green thing.....

Just one thing, I often seen Boris cycling down Goswell Road in a suit with a huge rucksack on his back.

The bloke must stink all day as he's usually got a sweat on.
