Default Congestion charge to N/S Circular??????

In message , at 23:01:02 on Fri, 16
Oct 2020, Ian Jackson remarked:
People who live in the "Circular" area, are people in normal
employment with lives that mean that they have to have a car.

and an annual tax of 5,475 pounds to own one, is bloody ridiculous

If the local councillors suggested this they would be out on their
ears at the next election

It's only because Boris is a Tory, and most of the affected LAs are
Labour/LibDem run that he has a hope of getting away with this
politically

but it's still a bag of nonsense socially.


It's nothing to do with congestion, but simply a potential way to
raise a poll-tax the pay for TfL's huge deficit.


After the N/S Circular, how long before the M25?


Some of the media is speculating already.
