Something About England: London to Triple Congestion Tax on Large Cars

Holy crap. Has Red Ken gone entirely friggin' starkers? As reported previously, London mayor Ken Livingstone plans to increase the congestion charge on large cars and SUVs to 25 quid (currently $47.50), while ditching it for drivers of electric cars and hybrids. He's also planning to ditch the 90% discount for large-car drivers who live inside the zone. This just strikes us as crazy. Bonkers. Nuts. And entirely unfair.
