  • ERCC (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Angie Bray
    • Meeting date: 12 March 2008
    I think you are also suggesting that they change a school which their children have clearly been at for some time now and I do not think that changing the education issue is necessarily the way round it. What we have here is an inflexible attitude which scoops everybody up. You love to hide behind the Lamborghinis and the great big Chelsea tractors but what you are failing to acknowledge is that for a lot of decent people who have large cars with large families you are penalising hardworking families just for the sake of a bit of flag waving.

    • Question by: Angie Bray
    • Meeting date: 12 March 2008
    Final question from the excellent article in the business section of The Independent by Stephen King; he asked what you say to somebody who does want to be a good non-polluting type person but does not want to pay your congestion charge who has sold her small car and bought a G-Wiz electric vehicle and then along you come tweaking and changing all the criteria and the goal posts and everything else again and why did she bother because she is stuck with her Band A or Band B car? She could still have been treated by you as a...
  • ERCC (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Angie Bray
    • Meeting date: 12 March 2008
    You see; here we go. You always try to lump everything into the most obvious hate icons but in fact I would like to bring your attention to one particular family who have been in touch with me and I would like to demonstrate to you that there are consequences, possibly unintended, for hardworking, decent families with four children or three children and one on the way that I do not think you thought through properly. The issue is this; a family who live in Battersea take their two older children to school across the bridge every day so they...
  • Taxpayer-funded "free" travel for children (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Angie Bray
    • Meeting date: 12 March 2008
    I think the problem is that what you are doing is you are switching an awful lot of other people who do not get their free travel off the buses altogether and the problem for you is that they are going to go back to using their cars again which is precisely the opposite of the effect that you want to create in London.

    • Meeting date: 12 March 2008
    So it is a short sharp shock for the passengers who have paid for their fares as well, isn't it? Every time there is a short sharp shock being delivered they are on the receiving end as well.
  • Taxpayer-funded "free" travel for children (Supplementary) [16]

    • Question by: Angie Bray
    • Meeting date: 12 March 2008
    I wanted to know what your message was to all the other passengers who may not be qualifying for their free 18 and under passes as they sit on a bus which under your orders is being told not to move while they sort out the issue around the free passes and what have you? The trouble is that you are mixing everybody up in what could be a fairly chaotic situation. There are an awful lot of people who have paid their bus fares and they are not going to take kindly to sitting while this sometimes chaotic mess...
