Scots to pay even HIGHER taxes to drive

The Labour party in London promised its Southern English electorate it would try to help improve traffic flow both North and South of the border.

What has it done so far?

South of the border it has forced motorists to drive at 50mph on motorways around London and added inadequate road widening schemes.

North of the border, prompted by Blair, his puppet parliament is set to put toll charges on the M8 a major motorway linking Edinburgh to Scotlands largest city, Glasgow in the West of the Scotland.

Given petrol (gas) is about $6 - $7 /gallon already and given there is a massive fuel tax and many remote areas in Scotland this is London experimenting on the Scots again.

Any new tax is a breach of the Treaty on Union 1707
