in autocar this week the government is having to radically revise its co2 emissions forecasts bringing into doubt the reasons behind its anti car stance due to car manufacturers being quicker than they thought in reducing co2. so i wonder what their excuse will be now..

How about....

"We just hate you buggers being out of our control - we want you all to suffer on public transport and leave the roads free for us to get around in our Jags, swanning it over you proles" oh, but you still all have to pay road tax and if you walk faster than 2 mph, we'll take a picture and fine you for excessive sweating"

BUT

This goverment want us to stop using cars to work and rather use public transport......

Sure thing mr fcuking hypocrite, Jaguar Driving tw*tc ... Lets review this situation and see If this is a viable or even acceptable proposition for me (As I have no f**ing right to speak for anyone else)

I need to commute from Cambridge to Norwich and return every day. Anglia Rail will charge me £266.20 for a monthly ticket to travel with their very reliable, always on time ..... Oh, who am I bullsh*tting. Pile of shyte.

OR

I can use my own car (Chrysler Neon 2.0i) at a cost of £400.00 per month, So I share the travel with other Cambridge commuters in warm reliable transport. Hell I wonder if I should rather use the train! Like Fcuk!

As long as the parlemantary a**wipe bearocrates in the city can drive their fcuking v12 sherman tanks to work I'll drive mine!

sorry, was that all aloud?

SET RANTOFF = TRUE

With respect Richard, that #1596/year would be quite persuasive to a lot of people!

p.s. Sorry to hear about your dire form of transport - my deepest sympathies etc... etc...
