Of course it wasn't, it was brought in to STEAL more money off the common person.
Do you think speed cameras are put up to help road safety? Of course not they are there to STEAL money off the common person.
Do you think parking attendants are there to help ease parking congestion?
Of course not, they are there to STEAL money off the common person.
Do you think that the price of petrol is fair and the price is kept in line with peoples wages?
No it is unfairly priced and designed to STEAL money from the common person.
Do you see a pattern emerging here?

I believe it was brought in to make more money for the government.
I pay Road Tax, Parking Fees AND bloody Congestion Charge at £8 per day????!!!!! - It makes me sooooo mad.
What a MASSIVE con to the poor people that are forced to enter the zones.

No, it will now be used as an excuse for all the other big cities to steal more money from the motorist.

I cant answer for myself as I live in Spain and traffic is minuscule here thank goodness, However my son lives in Westminster, he thinks its great and has made a huge difference to the volume of traffic, sorry if this is unpopular but he gives it a definite thumbs up.

Yes, me. And as I regularly ride a motorbike in central London I have noticed a definite improvement in the amount of traffic that I have to negotiate around.
Mind you, as a motorbike rider, I don't pay the congestion charge - hee hee.
