more road tolls in the UK

Once again the government scrabbling about to get money rather than addressing the actual problem. £50bn is taken from road users every year, only a small amount is spent on the roads. Once again another form of stealth tax, taking more while convincing people you aren't.

Perhaps we should look at why our roads are overloaded. Perhaps if our rail network wasn't so stupidly expensive due to years of private underinvestment () then we might alleviate the pressure on our road network.

It won't improve the road network, people aren't going to suddenly stop using key road routes, just like they can't avoid using other critical parts of our countries infrastructure. Why on earth would a company improve the quality of it service instead of lining its pockets when people are going to use the product regardless. Quite simply they won't, as has been seen in the UK train network, the water network, the telecommunications system. We seen this happen before and its failed.
