Yaaay, PH is up again


This might be old news, but I just spotted something…..

Congestion charge planned within M25 area

article said:

The Commission for Integrated Transport (CfIT), a Government-funded transport think tank, is poised to recommend a congestion charging system covering the roads inside London's M25 motorway ring.

........

The CfIT appears to favour the greater complexity of a variable charging system, and envisages going much further than simply putting the network in on the main roads.

.........

CfIT chairman Professor David Begg.......
Suddenly, his motives become so clear.
I thought he was just a loon spouting hot air on his website; now I find he’s a loon paid to spout exactly what the government wants to hear and will act upon

£40 a week to come to work.

Yep thats raised my motivation to continue paying the ludicrous level of taxation that I already do...

Oh and at £8 + £4.50 in petrol I will still beat the cost of the train by £1.50

This country is run by proper card carrying cretins.

Still cheaper and easier to drive then to get the train

Let me see...

60-90 mins in the car to get to work. Fuel and car allowance paid

vs

Minimum 2hrs to get to work on the train, £20 per day.

FECK OFF!!!!

This has definitely sped up the process of emmigration! I'm taking all my money and taxes with me!
