‘The demand to extend the congestion charge will cripple businesses and hit residents’

• THE government are demanding an increase in council taxes and insisting on scrapping free travel for under-18s and over-60s.

The demand to extend the congestion charge to the North Circular will cripple businesses and hit residents.

If they don’t get their way, like a cynical playground bully, the government are threatening to take over Transport for London anyway.
