British Cities to Impose Inflated "Pollution Charges"

If only global warming moonbattery could be dismissed as a harmless fantasy of human-hating liberals. Unfortunately, it is producing costs that are anything but harmless.
Britain will soon inflict upon itself "pollution charges" of up to £25 a day just to drive into city centers. London's Mayor Red Ken Livingstone plans to introduce the plan in February. At least 10 other British cities may follow with their own levies.
Naturally politically incorrect cars are charged more than ultra high-mileage death traps — even though drivers of safe vehicles are already singled out for extra penalization with the national vehicle excise duty.
Hopefully NYC's lefty Mayor Mike Bloomberg isn't watching.
On a tip from Bill.
