Introduction by the EU to bring in Tolls on all British Roads?

Rather than just frothing at the mouth at any opportunity to be anti EU with the typical misinformation you people come out with and you read the article I saw on the Daily Express website properly...

It states that the EU will integrate an already toll road (the severn road bridge) with an existing payment system so that people all over the continent can pay using a single unified payment system where ever they might actually be in the continent. Sound like a pretty common sense and efficient idea to me that would actually make thing more convenient for people who travel around the EU for work or holidays.

Nowhere does it say the "EU" are going to turn our all our roads into toll roads.

Altogether something a lot different than what you state and imply.

I am sure if the EU wants to make us pay for road tolls then the British government of which ever political party (Con-Lib or Lab) will be the first EU government to say a big yes. As we always do!

As for all those left wing out of touch Guardian readers I am sure they would love the idea of road tolls, because they can afford tolls with their middle class intellectual incomes, the REAL WORKING CLASS can't!

"While real working class people sweat with physical labour on low incomes the left wing intellectuals sit back in expensive coffee shops and think of more silly annoying ideas to make our lives even more difficult and expensive while they lounging on a £5 mug of coffee on their overloaded incomes, then they think of themselves as socialists LOL!"

Our Government does not need prompting by the EU, they have already hijacked the Road Fund which paid for roads into a general tax.

If such a brain dead idea did come to fruition we would at least be able to get rid of all of those foreign coins we have left from numerous foreign holidays.

Simple to prevent or stop it, evey one who has a day out arrives at the 'booth' and can only pay by cheque, then you ring your bank and stop the cheque!

I think 203 has it right that is what they are planning to do but I still understand your hate for there interference. I wished Europe had just stayed a economic community. we should have taken the same road as Norway.

I think its an excellent idea to make all main roads and motorways toll roads. It will discourage unnecessary driving which is good for the environment and mean the non driving public such as myself won't have to subsidise road building and maintenance or the medical costs of the annual road carnage (3,500 deaths and 14,000 serious injuries), through my income tax payments

Have you been reading the daily mail?? This is not true, the EU does not have that sort of power.

Thanks Sarah and 203.

This is just another misinformed Anti-EU rant.
