Our poor girls! Damn this country and its crazy weather!
That’s progress?
New London mayor, Conservative Boris Johnson, has scrapped plans by his predecessor, Ken Livingstone, to introduce a £25-a-day congestion charge for the most polluting vehicles, saying that this will save legal costs. How that justification is supposed to be better than tackling climate change, who can say? But all the rich Kensington and Chelsea mothers driving little Tarquin and Princess La-la to school every day in cars the size of lorries will be grateful, no doubt. Bonkers Boris has also scrapped a proposal to allow low emission cars free entry to the congestion charge zone.
