| This push / pull or carrot / stick argument doesn’t hold water anymore We can all see a loud minority have hijacked the whole scenario Paying for ever “greener” cars which were disproportionately more expensive was encouraged as you were exempt from taxes like parking, ULEZ, congestion zone and some of the actual taxes such as road tax. All of that gone or on the way out. So cars are the most environmentally friendly they’ve ever been but now there’s too many journeys; that’s ignoring the shift towards making roads virtually unusable for quick car journeys How about looking at this another way? We don’t have a car crisis or a housing crisis…… what we have in London and vast areas of the UK is a population crisis. Good old TTKeir doing his bit on that by attempting to kill off the OAPs this Christmas I suppose though. I really can see in six months time, when the majority have enough of previous 20 minute journeys now taking an hour and a half, there will be real civil uprising. Maybe not wide scale attacks on infrastructure but things like law abiding people reverting to fake plates, cameras and bollards being bumped etc etc It was all so obvious it’s laughable. Predicted these lycra stazi loons would be emboldened with five years ahead of them and by summer 2025 the complete destruction of the transport network once lovingly called the roads would be well and truly underway in CERTAIN parts of Ealing, London and the UK at large.
