I totally agree! on TalkRadio this morning there was a debate about this

new
toll road and most callers supported it! I thought you bunch of morons!

Only
a small amount of the road tax we pay gets spent on the roads, the rest is
stolen and wasted by other government departments. There lies the ****ing
problem! why on earth anybody thinks we should have to pay an extra tax to
use a new road that should ALREADY be funded by our road tax I do not

know.

I suppose you support the idea that the National Insurance contribution
should only fund social security / pensions and the health service too?

By logical extension why should any of my taxes go on educating other people
kids?

Think of it more as paying retrospectively for your own education.

D'you feel you got your money's worth?

So, on that basis, those who went to fee-paying schools should pay less tax

The A34 traditionally ended at Winchester, then carried on to Southampton as
A33.

But see:

And the other end of the A34 is Salford, not Manchester, according to the
Ordnance Survey. (There's a big chunk missing in the middle too, where it
has been replaced by M40/M42.)

Follow the links from the UK Roads portal site
(http://www.uk-roads.co.uk/) - efforts are being made to compile such
a list.
