# maybe
and you can call me daft on this one....maybe its because after paying the road tax,mot and a rather hefty tax on petrol that they feel just a little fed up of being asked to use roads they have already been asked to fork up 3 times for already....

# pedant...
MOT is a test of the road worthiness of your car, not a tax as such. Although you do have to pay for the test once a year.

maybe i`m not 100% right about the mot but if ya gonna charge people to use the roads its either tolls or road tax..not both thats just being greedy....

# I love the phrase 'Stealth Tax'
...I have this mental picture of ministers in ninja outfits, sneaking bills under peoples pillows at night.

In fact, can we call it a 'Ninja Tax' from now on?
