As it says

 

Believe it or not this half witted government intend to impose this Travel Tax and vote in 14days to make it Legislation. They intend that all cars will be fitted with a tracking device. This will then generate a bill at £1.34 per mile.

 

It will also be able to raise speeding tickets, do you for running a red light, + (Now this isn't a big deal to me, but if I wanted to have an affare or go get a bit of smoke,( perhaps I have a family member with muscular distrophy) what ever it's my choice.) check if you are visiting people who may be dealing etc. the bounderis are endless for priversy invation.

 

This charge would cot me £99.14 per day to go to work. £14.42 to nip to the shop for a pint of milk and a loaf of bread.

 

I already pay 80% of my petrol and derv bill in tax. £170 X 2 for my Volvo and Z + £192 for my Truck. Even though I can only drive one at a time.

Well as you see from the News on TV and the Daily papers. This is infact True and not a wind up. Also the website is Official and Collapsed due to public response. So Now its back up and running all you doubting Thomas please put your names up.

 

Yeah but its also been said on the news 'It doesn't mater how many people sign the petition, it will still come into force...' Waste of my bandwidth then, bit like this thread :tongue: :D

Tried to register, entered my details and was told "We've sent you an email; before your signature is added to the petition you'll have to click the link in it."

It's comforting to see democracy at work :rofl:

The Government is serious about tracking our cars at all times, and charging us based on the time of day, type of road and location. Be scared because it is very real!!

 

It's not planned to come into effect for several years though, but trials will be starting soon in the Midlands. It's being called Labour's Poll Tax, because there will be massive demonstrations which are already in the pipeline.

 

Anyone who wants to keep up to date should take a look around Pistonheads, but you need to join to see forum 'speed plod & the law' .

Exactly as I have always said in my threads. "NOT IN OUR DRIVING LIFETIMES"

 

By the time its brought in, tracking people will be the norm anyway. Anyone heard of Oyster cards??? ;)

Slowly, Slowly catchy monkey.

 

 

Thats the way the british goverment do things. Introduce it a tiny bit at a time and no one will be any the wiser.

 

Stick it up your arse Mr Blair. you are a prize prick. :smw: :smw:
