Well, politicians are known for bleeding people dry. What will they say when less people are driving because of it, and it impacts businesses because people aren't driving to them, and then they get less tax revenue because of it? Oh, they will use the buses. Have any of you tried the bus lately? It would take me 2 hours simply to go 15 min worth of driving. I'd rather stay home and listen to music or something.
What they are proposing is to completely eliminate the UK economy in a way, or to seriously impact it negatively.
Here is you problem with politicians - they are way too short sighted to see the big picture down the road. This is what I look for when I go to vote. If a politician can see the big picture, regardless of party, and I agree with that picture, then my vote is cast for them. They are a rarity these days however.
