Default Kiley wants road user charging in London

Front cover of the Standard family today. Bob Kiley spoke to The Times
about his desire to introduce tag-based road user charging across the
whole of London within 4-7 years, way before any nationwide system comes
to fruition.

However, the Standard takes this as gospel; on the other hand, I imagine
Ken is quietly furious. He said Kiley was "talking about his own views"
and that the scheme would not be possible for some time as it requires
primary legislation.

Meanwhile, opposing political figures are going to have a field day over
the disagreement.
