Ken-gestion has gone too far
I have never been afraid to show my hatred (and hatred is the correct word) of the Chavez-loving, Jew-insulting, self-inflated megalomaniac who runs the office of Mayor of London. His latest actions, if anything, typify why I loathe him so much.
Ken has just announced that cars with high emissions will be charged £25 to drive into their own capital city, compared to £8 or nothing for lower emission vehicles. Lets just look at everything that is wrong with this.
First, surely a congestion charge should aim to defeat congestion and not save the planet at the same time? Clearly there are some ulterior motives!
Second, if you are rich under Ken’s scheme, you can go out and buy a nice new low-emissions vehicle, as he has done, by buying a Prius, whilst poorer families with lots of children who may have no option but to own a large people carrier are being penalised for their family situation!
Third, who cares if high-emissions vehicles are being driven!? It is not a crime, global warming will happen despite them, and maybe Ken, if he is so scared of the impending Armageddon, should lower his own carbon footprint by limiting how often he jets to South America to suck up to his socialist heroes!
Rant over. But I still hate him.
[…] Porsche joins the U.S. Embassy, several African High Commissions, and many of the writers here at Sticks and Stones in vehement opposition to Congestion Charging. I hate it because it makes travelling ludicrously expensive, and the alternative: public transport, is in no way affordable either. James hates it because it is prejudiced against the poor who cannot afford expensive cars like the Toyota Prius. Read his riposte of the increased Charge. […]
