Behave yourself, Darling

Oi, Darling. Get a fucking grip, fella!

If you seriously think that by charging drivers up to £1.34 per mile to use major motorways you will not piss off the entire nation, you are as sadly deluded as your ideas are outrageous.

The answer to halting the continued increase of cars on our roads is as simple now as it was 10 years ago.

SORT THE FUCKIN PUBLIC TRANSPORT SYSTEM OUT!

I'm a polar bear and I worked it out! The French twigged on years ago to the idea of investing in an integrated public transport sytstem, as did the Dutch, as did the Spanish (and the Slovakians). In fact, most of Europe have got it sorted but England. Rocket science it is not!

If you ask me, the majority of people don't enjoy driving anyway and only do so under duress because there is no other way of getting to their destination cheaper and on time.

The trains are always late, the buses are always late and are full of pikeys and chewing gum and with taxis you end up sitting in traffic the whole time. And there is no use in trying to ride a bike anywhere as the roads are full of psychopathic drivers who will happily knock you off as a way of venting spleen at the mere though of paying £1.34 a mile to drive anywhere in the first place.

It's all just rubbish.

On a lighter note, I bought the new Sleater Kinney album yesterday and it was excellent. Consider it recommended.
