No Free Parking For Electric Cars
Friday, 18. July 2008
So you’ve been out and got yourself a nice environmentally friendly electric car for driving around London. Not only do you avoid congestion charges but also you get free parking. Oh no you don’t! Bonkers Boris has suddenly decided that by giving free parking to these little electric cars it discourages the use of public transport, walking and cycling so from the end of 2008 you no longer get free parking in an electric car. This will now cost those who hold free parking cards £2,000 as well as wiping 50% off the value of their cars. I agree with the spokesman from electric car manufacturer Nice who described the decision as ‘Barmy’. And we thought Ken was clueless.
