Don't forget when you get fined for not putting rubbish in the right bin to blame Thatcher, or the motorist either is OK. As a reserve in case the person you are arguing against actually knows something, blame the monarchy and or immigration.

Well I'm with you 100% on the principle of it. But it has to be done correctly, and so far I'm not convinced that blindly voting yes because the principle is correct is the right way to go.

I can just imagine people ditching their cars, only to find that public transport is over crowded (because there are no improvements forthcoming!), then go back to their cars. Catch 22.

The transport investment depends on a Yes vote. But the congestion charge will not be brought in until 80% of the transport expansion is complete - set for 2013 at the moment.

I was contacted as a 'business owner' (there's one of me ) today by MORI and this is what they explained to me.
