In any case cant see the harm. Would love to have everything on my doorstep. 

You dont understand what they are, try and read something about them not written by a right wing nutjob.

It's becoming clearer that it is you that doesn't understand.

You are not and never will have everything on your doorstep.  At the moment you are free to drive wherever you want, whenever you want in the city, free of charge, (apart from motoring costs.)

 

In the near future that is going to change. You will lose that freedom and be subjected to all kinds of monitoring to enable the council to extract money from your pocket (and anything else they chose.) We are already the most surveilled country in the world; new methods are  being created and are becoming more intrusive all the time.

 

You might think that is OK.

I do not.

Don't be daft! Soon most people won't be able to run a car so they'll be walking everywhere.

Is my car fine to drive through existing bus gates and on all existing bus lanes at all times? 

Why did you not tell me this sooner?

That's another good point. That will cut emissions nicely won't it? Once again at the expense of the poorer members of society, the most underprivileged group of people it is still legal to discriminate against.

Just to bump this absolute bullsh*t again as it was lost in a wall of text.

it costs £4k per year to run a car.

 

the poor don't have cars, they're already walking/biking/catching the bus.

 

it's our car-first society that's discriminating against the poor.

 

(me and msWife are dinkies, we can only afford 1 (cheap!) car)

Well I did say 'poorer' rather than poor...

But my point is there will be many people who 'just about manage' to run a car now, who will be priced out of the market when they have to replace it, (second hand cars are already rocketing in price.) This is true of several other areas of life too, as people effectively become poorer, and their money buys less and less. The 'middle class' are going to find themselves sliding into this catagory too.
