As everyone in Britain knows, our beloved PM has been reading a little too much George Orwell. Anyway, the jist of it, for those who live elsewhere, it this:

Our government (with a small g) wants to make people in this country has a box put into their car so that we can pay as we go drive. Yep, that's right, we pay for the driving we do. We are to pay somewhere in the regions of £200 for a box that tracks our every movement and then charges us for doing it. If we go to fast by accident then they will simply add a fine to our next months bill. Very nice. Not only do we pay a car tax, a road tax and have the most expensive fuel tax other than Amsterdam, we are now going to have to pay for every millimetre that we drive.

Not good enough really is it?

Well there is a petition against this and I would like to ask anyone who reads this, you must be British or expat, to take out a couple of seconds of your life so that Britain can try to pretend that we are a free country to live in for that little bit longer.

Happy signing!
