I'm fed up paying 40% income tax and getting a sub standard public
transport system which is overpriced.

Overpriced? I know a lady who travels daily from Stevenage to London, she
pays £ 3000 / year, she thinks it is a lot, but counting the final leg of the
journey within London, it is a 60 miles return journey and for a working year
of 220 days, it works out at 22p/mile, in a train costing £ 8 Million. I
don't think you could get a ride for that without massive subsidy.
