Terrible idea really, but isn't that what government is for today, doing terrible things ?

Said could kick 12 million cars off the road in UK.
Many people over there at the breaking point.

Recall their mantra, you will own nothing and be happy, means you will be entirely dependent on the state.
Eventually not unlike living your life as a serf

Yes, it’s a stupid idea and I am pretty sure there would be a backlash. Not sure how they would expect workers to comply who have no choice but to use cars and vans to get from one job to another. Apparently they are announcing more details in autumn - I am not a driver, but it would affect my older two sons. My middle son is moving to Northern Ireland because he cannot afford to stay in Sussex ( we all live in the south of England where everything is more expensive )

Starmer says he is going to painfully raise fuel prices on diesel drivers...in his own words.
How do you Brits like your Starmer guy now, months after election?

Owners of diesel-powered cars have been warned that their fuel bills could go up by more than £200 in the looming October Budget.

The first Budget to be announced since the new Labour Government came into office,
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has already warned the public that it will be 'painful', with many suspecting a rise in fuel duty.

They will say it is to SAVE THE PLANET, don't the greedy politicians make you feel all warm and fuzzy while they hit you on the head and cause you to get dizzy and faint, all they while saying it's for your own good. The beatings will continue to prop up acceptance in the prison camp. Eventually you may own nothing, have no say in your future, and be very unhappy.

Owners of diesel-powered cars have been warned that their fuel bills could go up by more than £200 in the looming October Budget.
The first Budget to be announced since the new Labour Government came into office, Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has already warned the public that it will be 'painful', with many suspecting a rise in fuel duty.

Sharing his thoughts on whether the Government could increase fuel duty, Howard Cox, founder of the petrol and diesel pricing campaign group FairFuelUK, warned that costs could soon go up significantly.
He explained: "Fuel taxes will be hiked through policies cuddly dressed up to save the planet. Not my words, but those eagerly imparted to me six weeks or so ago by a seasoned Labour MP.

"Although the last 14 years of Tory governance have been less than successful across several major political issues, at least in that time, they kept fuel duty frozen. But now, if you drive a petrol car and, much more worryingly, a diesel vehicle, Labour will make you pay, and pay big time."

YOUR LABOR PARTY seems like our democrat party on steroids.

Would basically be a poor tax if this happened in the US. Cost of living increases nearer to big cities, and outside of those public transport is non-existent. The poor in these rural communities can find themselves commuting hours to and from work.

I never liked Stammer in the first place, but I disliked Sunak even more - none of them can be trusted x

It’s called the totalitarian tip toe. They’re tip toeing the people into their smart city concentration camps.

Like she did not know? What about Swalwell and his China spy girl?

Yes I saw that. The US has fallen, it’s just a matter of the right crisis coming about and then the illegal fighting age men will be activated.

It's called Satanism ! or Anti-Christ in fact !

When one truly understands how the Nazis and the Communist got total power over the People ! then you can come to understand what is truly taking place over the last 20 years say being ramped up !

I remember the days were anyone could speek their own mind freely without a care in fact, and everyone knew for a fact, that was our rights ! it did not mean that you had to agree with anyone tho in fact. but nowadays the MSM and Governments claim, that if one said some thing that was not in line with Political Correctness, then you are the enemy of the Socialist State in fact !

Why has it changed so much ? well, they claim that if someone heard such as another view point, that they may follow along with that line of thought ! or a thought could lead to one thinking outside of the Box ? maybe that's it ?

You may fined in a Union, that the Union tells you all what to think in fact ! they demand it and your opinion means nothing in fact, you have no right to question the leadership of the Union in fact, or look out !
A good mate of mine who is 100% full on dedicated union man, found out what happens if you question the union leadership, he never did that again ! he was a dedicated Socialist untill that day !

Or is it just that the Gov has created or demands that what the Gov says is god ! and you are not to question the Government ? Why has that taken hold of the people nowadays ?

Well welcome to Socilaism !!

Socialism is where you are owned by the Government in fact ! that's the main point of issue.

Socialism end game is that the Government dominates over all of you and they tell you what to do in fact and how you are to think ! For they do not Serve you the People, the People are not their masters in fact !

At the begining Socialism claimes to be Democratic in fact ! but they play a game play with how you can Vote in fact ?

Satans workings is in the detail of so called Voters right under Socialist.

Democracy in it's self can be an unhealthy one or a healthy one.
Democracy is not the only Key to a Healthy society, you need much more that just a Democracy to prosper and grow forth as a strong healthy society.

Are People just idolising the word Democracy ? thinking that Democracy on it's own is the be all ?

Their is no such thing as a pure Democracy in fact, for that would fail before lunch time !

Look at all of the Democracys in History ? they failed, because they became sick and retarded !

So what is the Key strengths of a Healthy Democracy ?
Well total freedom of speach is the number one thing that makes for a healthy Democracy that's truly worthy in fact and once you reduce such as total freedom of speach, Democracy becomes a Cancer in fact, for such looses it whole core true values in fact. because then it has no Virtue ! So it can not stand up on it's own feet say, because it's very core has in fact been compromised. So it's Dead duck flaoting in the warters say!

Socialism brings everyone down to one level, Trash ! Virtue less dingbats in fact.

Many people believe that Socialism is just a Social Tribe thing of helping everyone in the Tribe ? community ? fact it's not that at all !

I do not idolise Capitalism in fact, for such in it's self alone is another Cancer ! and that is what Socialist key claim is. like look at the evils of Capitalism !
But the real problems stem from criminal intent in any system, and it is this that truly well informed and truly educated society can deal with. but a System that is dominated by Tyrants over an ill informed and uneducated People are doomed to fail badly. History proves.

A decade ago I made myself ill through persistent worrying of what George Osborne, the Chancellor, was going to do next that may have a personal detrimental effect on me. Nowadays, the News channel stays off and I am not going to do it to myself again. I have the Gospel Station playing for most of the day. I do my bible reads and I regularly talk on the phone to my brother. If I’m going to watch something to do with the News, then I’m much more careful what I look at. Not because I’m an ostrich, but I don’t want to fill my brain with negative worldly issues that may or may not happen and cause me huge stress and anxiety. The Lord will keep you in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on Him, because you trust in Him. Isaiah ch 26, verse 3.

As growing up with a Dad who ran his own business and he worked 7 days a week, i seen that the news back then in the 1970's etc could play a huge part in money coming in ! like we would see somthing happen and Bingo battle stations, we are in huge trouble, work will dry up directly the next day and people will not pay for work done, period ! it was just Bang ! we are going to be smashed once again, like a car crash it was.

So i have always had to watch out, not to mention read between the lines of what the Media say.
I do not look up to the Media and all that to do with Political, so i like to move away from such things and let such wane, but then again i have to be involved sadly. it's not my cup of tea ! but i am forced to deal with such. for it's in regards to my buisness in fact ! i have to care. or i would be a fool.

Other people however look to the Media from another angle and regarding the Political as well, it's a diffrent perspective for them. as many see such from the class room perspective is taking such in with no real solid regards ? but as for me and the class room, i come out firing, i am the gunner ! who wants questions asked because i do not look up to them in the media or Political. as for the rest of the class, i see their are is a lot of 5 year olds, for they are so delusional.

Like one of them said to me that Kamala was a really smart person ! and i was astounded at that remark, i have seen nothing of such at all in reality but a total outright moron, it's so embarrassing ! If i was a woman i would be furious that such a twat represent's women, why her ! for she is a total outright fool in fact, i have never seen anyone so pathetic and stupid ! She is a Joke right ! seriously.
