Please read and if you feel as I do sign the petition below. Fight the man
Thank you

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 Mum 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.:mad:
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.
