Due to the Government trying it's best to force us out of our cars over the next 10 years I've got a link for a petition against it all -
http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/traveltax/
For me it would make life difficult - I send my youngest to a school where we used to live because it is a brilliant school - trouble is you have to get 2 buses and in Derby we all know know how crap they are (sorry charliedenny). If they impose this levy then I would be forced to send her to the local ****hole (over my dead body and I think timbotts as well!) Also because my son is disabled and I HAVE to use the car to get him to college (again 2 buses and a distance - he can't manage) and to various clubs and disability football tournaments around the country. The Government haven't said how that will affect people like me as a carer. I don't take the car to work - I go on my bike as does Steve because it is rush hour for me and the bike is quicker. Same if I go to the local shops.
I'd use the bus a lot more if we had a clean, reliable service and the council weren't rebuilding Derby City (sorry village) Centre all the time. I've joined the City Residents Forum in the hope that they may listen but I doubt it.
Also what happens if you are a self employed driving instructor? Thrashed for tax anyway - £3000 this year for Steve for doing part time for most of it as well as paying tax on his regular job and then have this charge levied as well?
And have the Government even hinted at anyone trying to use their 4x4 for recreational pastimes?? Oh hang on - all the green lanes will be closed by then!! Ah but you still will have to travel to get to an off road site - and won't this new tax be hefty around that site because they know that enthusiaststake their 4x4's there??
If I ever come into any money - I'm doing what my parents did a few years back - ****** off abroad!! This country is bleeding everyone dry both in tax and freedom.
BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU.
