Do they really want us to use public transport?

[AndyMac]

Last year the gov't earned over £30,000 million (is that £30 billion?, not sure) from tax on fuel (73% tax), if everyone boycotted the roads for just one day the gov't would lose over £82m.
This isn't a pop at Labour or anybody else (the tax on fuel hasn't drastically changed since the 70's) just an observation.

I know it aint practical but its a good point !
one day of no road use! = £82 million!

I've boycotted, who else will join me.

Well, at least you come in, every morning i'm trying to think of a reason to go sick, but then remember i'm on probation for being off sick to many times, and have to go in. Visa-ve, ergo. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh_2.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh_2.gif
