  1. It takes me anywhere between two and three and a half hours to get to and from work per day by public transport (four buses in total). If I had a car, that’d be fifteen to thirty minutes each way, depending on traffic; I know this as I sometimes resort to taxis. I have been forced to walk the distance on a few occasions, which took me over two hours each way. In hot weather, the buses turn into mobile saunas: in cold weather, they turn into fridges. When it rains, I get soaked walking to and from stops without shelters. Why would anyone give up their car? PS: I passed my driving test in 1985 but I’ve never been able to afford to buy a car, let alone run one.

  2. Poll tax on top of reviewed Council Tax, too.

  3. Why not trace gasses first? They make up slightly more than the total amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Oxygen is 21% and nitrogen around 78%. Got to start small to think big!

  4. I have no car; I can’t afford one. How much will I be charged per mile for using public transport?
