Livingstone working with Bin Laden?

Question

Is Livingstone trying to cripple the economy? Where does he think people are going to get the money to pay £200 /day for driving into a certain area. The population is cash strapped already.

The public is paying the price of government mistakes! They cannot have it both ways, speed limits in over congested areas are doing more harm to the environment than anything else. UK is a small patch on the earth's crust however the government is doing as much as they can to make money from it!

Answer 1

Ken Livingston should change his name to d**k Turpin, as they are both highway robbers.

Ja.

Answer 2

Livingstone has lost the plot! Using tax payers money on fancy trips to court voters, lack of financial accountability etc etc....

I will not vote for him again.....

Answer 3

The charge is ONLY for diesel commercial vehicles over 12 ton that have not shown that they are meeting current emissions regulations. Nothing else.

Just to stop haulage companies etc from operating smelly old diesel vehicles in these areas. It does not apply to you and me.

Answer 4

Off topic.  This is a political discussion, not a commuting question.  Reported.

Answer 5

look into it futher and you find out that the emissions targets will get even tighter in a few years meaning some ambulances will fall fowl off it . Does this mean the n.h.s will charge you £200 to pick you up in an emergency

Answer 6

I agree. This just looks to me like another stealth tax on those of us who actually work rather than sit back and let the state take care of us. Its also shocking how labeling a tax as "green" seems to make it exempt from any kind of scrutiny. These comerical vehicles are not driving to the capital for fun, they are part of the lifeblood that keeps the capital supplied with everything from food, to clothes.

I notice he had no problem taking $m's in discounted oil from a poor country, just because its dictator takes an anty US stance. Roll on the election lets get him out!

Answer 7

Ken Livingston is a traitor and as such should be put to death, but as the cockneys elected him thay only have themselves to blame!!!

Answer 8

The Man is STILL a Commie Marxist like the rest of the Labour party.

Just cos they dont mention the word or call each other Comrade in public.......... its still true.

All we are to socialists is a statistic or a number that they want to control, and need to work, so that they can s***w as much money out of us as possible so that they can sit in a room all day thinking of new pointless ideas to get them in the History books.

P.s  Kes........ youre a d**k if you report him for that.

Who are you..... Yahoo police ?
