Default Bath, Somerset: Diesel vehicle drivers will now Pay more to park

[A plan to charge extra to park the most
polluting vehicles in Bath could
raise £225,000 a year.
The increases are due to come into force
in September, and will apply to all diesel vehicles.
Petrol vehicles that emit more than 131g
of carbon dioxide per kilometre will
also be charged more.

Electric vehicles and cleaner petrol cars
will be exempt,
but analysis by Bath
and North East Somerset Council found
66% of drivers will pay more.

Parking fees will be set on a sliding scale,
according to a vehicle's emissions or engine size.]

New Labour Chancellor & later Prime Minister Gordon Brown
advised the Public to buy Diesel.

He should fund it

Robbing bastards.

Give incentives to less polluting cars, don't steal more money from those who can't afford compliant ones.
