Yanks show usual respect for the environment and other people's country
London uses a unique system to control traffic in a busy city. It is the congestion charge and it has been succesful in reducing grdidlock and air pollution. Every car driver must pay 8 pounds ($13) per day. Of course the US Embassy has unilaterally decided not to pay it. This is typical US arrogance. - the rulers of Universe. Pass the sickbag.

Congratulations to the yanks who refuse to pay for this 'stealth tax'. Whilst the congestion charges original intentions may have been to reduce traffic/pollution etc as with everything it all comes down to money, money for Ken.
So where is this money going? Not on public transport as trains and buses are still late, overcrowded and at times a disgraceful way to travel. Did i mention that public transport fares are also increasing dramatically from next year. How exactly are we supposed to get around in our own city?

Your blogs are getting better. Did you happen to see David Cameron choking on his tongue when asked how he would persuade young black voters into the party. He did not anwser the question and for some reason Dimbleby also glided over it and managed not to get back to the questioner, something that he usually does.

Pathetic the lot of them.
