Subject: A(OTHER) WORTHWHILE PETITION
For all of you who have not seen this
yet, get on line and sign up -
spread the word unless you want your
motoring costs to rise!!
Sarah Kennedy was on about this proposed
car tax scheme on the radio,
apparently there is only one month left
to register
your objection to the 'Pay as you go'
road tax.
The petition is on the 10 Downing St
website but they didn't tell
anybody
about it. Therefore at the time of
Sarah's comments only 250,000 people
had signed it so far and 750,000
signatures are required to stop them
introducing it.
This is legit... from the 10 Downing
Street's website.
Once you've given your details (you
don't have to give your full
address,
just house number and postcode will
do), they will send you an
email with
a link in it. Once you click on that
link, you'll have signed the
petition.
Democracy in action?
The government's proposal to introduce
road pricing will mean you
having
to purchase a tracking device for your
car and paying a monthly
bill to
use it. The tracking device will cost
about £200 and in a recent
study by
the BBC, the lowest monthly bill was
£28 for a rural florist and
£194 for
a delivery driver. A non working
mother who used the car to take
the kids
to school paid £86 in one month.
On top of this massive increase in
tax, you will be tracked.
Somebody will
know where you are at all times. They
will also know how fast you have
been going, so even if you
accidentally creep over a speed limit in
time
you can probably expect a Notice of
Intended Prosecution with your
monthly
bill.
If you care about our freedom and
stopping the constant bashing of
the car
driver, please sign the petition on No
10's new website (link
below) and
pass this on to as many people as
possible.

Sign up if you are in agreement with
the petition - if not just
forget it.
If you feel strongly enough then please
forward to your friends also!
