It's not Boris's fault - it's the former Mayor who started this. I wouldn't have been surprised if this stand down was planned and the money to pay Porsche was going to fund the charity that Porsche is giving the money to. It could have cost the taxpayer a great deal more if Porsche won the case months down the line. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

He's actually made good on his promise that he would do this, which is a step in the right direction for a politician... not an ideal situation to be in, but it's case of damage limitation and at least the legal costs aren't going into someone's back pocket. |

Apparently hes also scrapped the idea of free congestion charge for vehicles <120g/km CO2. I wonder how Mercedes feel after heavily markerting that the Smart will be free from October |

Personally, I think a congestion covering the whole of London would be a great idea....anyone living within the M25 and owning a car would pay a nominal charge BUT anyone else would be 'hammered' for driving into the capital city |

Disagree - the very people who need to drive into London are those who live outside of the city. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

If you need to drive in to London and pollute the city then you should pay OR get on a train or a Coach.
