A road use tax! I love it! Now all they have to do is adjust it per weight of the vehicle. Stick it to ths SUV maniacs that have taken over America's roads!
WOOHOO! I can't wait.

When you charge by the mile it in effect restricts liberty.

If i was charged 1p for every mile i do i would be looking at a good 25% of my wages being lost each week, then ad the 12% tax i pay the 7% national insurance and also my now £1,330 council tax thats gone up by 100% in the last year, out of that i still have to pay water gas electric food and everything else.

I would be left with minus figures every time theres no way you could do that here unless you wanted to starve and make homeless everyone, and then we would all be on the welfare benifits and come this time next year the government would be skint.
