How much opposition to the Emissions Related Congestion Charge would the Commissioner have to receive before he would seriously reconsider a proposal which will fail to improve congestion, which will increase the number of cars entering the Congestion Zone, which will have a minimal effect on London's CO2 output and which will not improve London's air quality?

I wonder if I could talk to you about the famous - or at least the notorious - Hanger Lane gyratory system. I remember when I first started at LBC radio, as I was learning to do the traffic news, we found that that was one of the systems that we constantly described every day in the traffic news as being a nightmare, and it is a nightmare.

What about the point about the disproportionate nature of what happens here? If you are looking at people living inside the Congestion Charge zone, the residents who normally get a discount, you are effectively saying that if you are just 1g over your arbitrary cut off point, you go from 80 pence a day to £25 a day. Would you not agree that by any stretch of the imagination, that has to be seen as disproportionate?

Curiously, I travelled in on the Tube today with the Leader of Kensington & Chelsea Council and we were talking about this very subject. You will be aware that Kensington & Chelsea has actually remained entirely neutral about the issue of how much you want to charge large vehicles and large engines, but they are not at all neutral about the issue of the loss of the principle of the discount for residents. Are you prepared to do battle with Kensington & Chelsea over this?

Would you appreciate why they would feel concerned that this would, in many ways, be a complete turnaround on the principle that they felt they had established with the Mayor that there should be a discount for all residents with cars in the western extension?
