i signed teh petition and got a reply now that the petition is closed which is supposedly from tony blair
here is a quote from the reply which i got in my email box the same probably as everyone else who signed it
Quote:
But let me be clear straight away: we have not made any decision about national road pricing. Indeed we are simply not yet in a position to do so. We are, for now, working with some local authorities that are interested in establishing local schemes to help address local congestion problems. Pricing is not being forced on any area, but any schemes would teach us more about how road pricing would work and inform decisions on a national scheme. And funds raised from these local schemes will be used to improve transport in those areas.

so basicly the govenment wont bring in teh new scheme but gives teh councils the govenments full backing to bring in the scheme
if our council brings it in may i suggest every motorist votes against them at the following election after they do so reagardless of what party brings it in get the sods out
well done to tony blair for trying to shift the blame for teh vote looser onto the councils but its his baby and hes getting the blame as far as ime concerned
ps:
those who dont drive who think this dosnt effect them think about how much your taxi fares are going to jump up
mind you if accrington brought in road pricing ot wouldnt make much because no ****** comes here because theres nothing to see
accringtons congestion problems are not caused by the number of cars anyway they are caused by bad planning , the whole sysytem was designed by a man who didnt even have a driving licence , i forget his name but he was booted out to blackburn i think it is where he made just as much of a balls up as he has accrington
