Subject: RE: Folklore: UK Charge per mile = end of Fests?
All the talk I have seen suggests that other motoring taxes will drop slightly, so the 'typical' person will only pay a slight increase overall. Of course knowing this penny pinching, micromanging chancellor of ours, the typical case will be about as rare as 6 banjo players perfectly in tune with each other, and everyone else will pay an arm and a leg. Through the nose....
And to keep this out of the BS section.
I took the gold pin from the scarf on my bosom,
and said 'Take ye this in rememeberence of me'
But Gordon he stood and he said with a smile
The road and the miles do not come for free.
(Someone do better, please!)
