London Transport is a joke,as is Ken Livingston,and the congestion charge
is
(was) meant to decrease the amount of cars....Or have we forgotten???The
joke being that if there is more than one person in the pod,to decrease
congestion IN the pod,he adds an extra charge.....Geez I didn't think the
Canadian sense of humour was THAT different to the English,or should I
have
used the Canadian to British translation book again? GRIN

The joke is that the congestion charge worked. It did reduce the amount of
cars so well that they are not getting in the money.


I was an only child.....eventually!

Recently Mayor Ken Livingston wanted to settle the dispute over the
London
Eye by saying he'll take care of things himself if given control
......Does
that mean he'll add a congestion charge to every pod that has more
than
one
person in it much as he's done with the congestion charge in London?

Hu? The London Congestion charge is based on vehicle occupancy? I've
never heard that before.


Neither have I.
As far as I was aware, it was based on the vehicle.

What is this doing on :-

(Apart from the fact that London Transport *IS* a joke!)
