    No, not the name of a new band but what Boris wants to start doing to raise some cash.

    So for all you mugs who went out and bought hybrids like the Prius you are **** out of luck and will have to pay like the rest of us. As per usual Tory policy it will somehow be all your fault anyway, you will have to get an electric car to get away with not paying.

    We will all end up on Penny Farthings at this rate.

    Why electric cars are not mandatory and petrol cars banned is ludocris. If you can do the exact same thing using electricity why plunder the earth for oil that isn't needed.

    I would say it would be easier to sort that out than costing countless thousand lives invading countries
    and ripping **** right out the world we are leaving our kids. Maybe too many people are making too much money this way?

    So where exactly do you think the energy comes from for the electricity to power these cars then?
