Urgent! Object to the scrapping of the congestion charge extension

In the end, businesses can adapt, it didn't halt the economy in London, but merely adapted it, and those who didn't adapt to the change end up being shafted.

There's a good argument that getting unnecessary car use down frees up road space for business users. So yeah, £8 or a tenner or whatever on one day's work, but an extra call out because you're not stuck behind a bunch of cars with just one person in. It's why many business people want road user charging on motorways, so that they can clear all the doley scum out of the way and cane it about.

GLA / BoJo reckon that congestion costs London £2 billion a year, although I think people have bitched about the methodology they used to arrive at that sum. Anyway, if you're buying a sofa from a West London bookshop, you can probably spare £8, which just gets absorbed into the cost of the sofa anyway. Besides, what's wrong with this?
