I have strong feelings along the same line of thought. Like everything green at the moment. The government only seek to cash in on the green issue and not tackle this green issue on the production line. For example, Slap huge increase on road tax for larger vehicles.. They should be restricting such vehicles into the UK. I notice all the big car manufacturers are still promoting 4x4s....... this can't be right! They are the ones who should be taxed at a higher rate for producing them!!...

rant over.
