Apparently the government want to introduce a pay as you go road tax.

With a GPS tracking device and it works out more expensive - no suprise there then.

You don't say? Well I never.

You must have very high up sources of information, Fishface.



Oh, and I think you'll find it will be as well as vehicle excise duty, not instead of.

They want your address so that they can come and arrest you in the middle of the night...

Complete that petition and they'll have you pegged as a trouble-maker!

One of the transport junior ministers was on the radio this morning...............

"We won't introduce it if we can't convince the general public of the benefits"


Hmmm new direction for the liebour party................

Your better off with more tax
The NHS is better off with less beds & nurses
Everyone is more secure with less policemen

"503 Service UnavailableThe service is not available. Please try again later."

Funny that - as every other part of the site works ok - only when I try and submit my signature to the petition. Of course, there's a rational explanation - that this has been the case since 10:30.
