Default New M6 Toll road opens,road for fools ?

I totally agree! on TalkRadio this morning there was a debate about this new
toll road and most callers supported it! I thought you bunch of morons! Only
a small amount of the road tax we pay gets spent on the roads, the rest is
stolen and wasted by other government departments. There lies the ****ing
problem! why on earth anybody thinks we should have to pay an extra tax to
use a new road that should ALREADY be funded by our road tax I do not know.

The new Midlands M6 toll road has opened.

Inevitably the great British gullible public will happliy pour onto it
and pay their fees (twice).

I say dont use it and prove to government what a folly this is. Sure
there will be pain if you continue to use the "public" M6 but its a no
pain no gain situation.

Who gave the Government and the private company the right to cut
another swathe through the English countryside?. I am a freeman of
this country and no one asked me,did they ask you?.

The current toll fees are loss leaders becuase the Government and the
private comany know that this is very much an experiment,an experimnet
to see if the British mugs really will bite.

As soon as they feel its safe to do so,they;ll crank the tolls up and
wind down on investment/maintenance of the "public" M6.

You the motorist already pay enough in tax,dont be so foolish as to
let them fleece you again!.

If you do then you will be setting a precedent for univeraal tolling
AND road tax AND fuel tax

The British are their own worst enemy,it takes an age to rouse them to
action and by the time they do,its way too late.

I suppose you advocate everyone ****ting in the garden because the local
water authority isn't spending enough on the sewers?

Why whats wrong with recycling our waste into fertiliser instead of

letting some company make a profit from cleaning up our ****?, The Roads and
the water are paid for by direct taxation, we should not be paying a pennt
for toll roads and water is the fuel of life companies should notbe allowed
to profit from it.

And would you advocate widespread proliferation of road building,both
private and public simply becuase the Government refuses to construct
and facilitate integrated public transport systems but instead merely
pays lip service because they know that as long as cars are on the
road,they have a universal cash cow to milk.

Twould probably be far better to trawl through the records of the Toll
Collecting company and to amuse oneself trying to spot the
families/friends/representatives of senior political and administrative
figures who are on the shareholders register......!
At least thats the way it works over here in the Republic...!

Plenty of people are happy (well- 'uncomplaining' might be a better word)
about the dozens of prior examples of similar 'pay to drive' facilities:

Severn Bridge x2
Humber Bridge
Dartford crossings
Mersey crossings
etc

None of which would have been built by the Government in power at the
times, if private funding had not been around to build them.

I suppose you support the idea that the National Insurance contribution
should only fund social security / pensions and the health service too?

If the govt didn't steal so much of our road tax money and local councils
weren't so obsessed with purposely causing congestion we'd have perfect
roads and wouldn't need to build any new ones.

eh? you really must be very thick, only a small percentage of our road tax
is spent on roads and then they want us to pay extra to travel on certain
roads, where is the logic in that you total moron? if you had a brain you'd
realise the obvious answer is that more of our road tax should be spent on
the roads, not stolen/wasted elsewhere.
