Hi all,

According to
http://www.london.gov.uk/mayor/mayor...dec17_2003.jsp
, the public consultation for a westward extension of the
Congestion Charging area is due to start early in 2004.


The sooner it spreads outwards the better!!

(Just to get the discussion underway)




Yep. The sooner it gets out to all those London voters, the sooner Ken will
be out!


Ken Livingston (for whom I voted at the time) has done a great deal of
damage to London traffic. Thing is, that doesn't mean he made it better
for pedestrians, cyclists, etc. Keeping the traffic flowing makes for a
better environment; more stop-start motoring means higher fuels
consumption and more pollution.

A few years ago *nobody* jumped red lights, save a few crazy youngsters.
Now it is common practice. Ken's traffic management policies have
made London more dangerous.
