Road pricing, the Government’s favoured policy for dealing with congestion, has been overwhelmingly rejected in a referendum in Manchester. There is now little chance of any pay-as-you-drive schemes being introduced for at least the next decade.

Manchester’s proposal for peak-time tolls of up to £5 a day was defeated by a majority of 4 to 1, with 79 per cent voting against. The scheme was rejected in separate votes in all 10 Greater Manchester boroughs taking part, in which just over a million people voted out of 1.9million balloted.

Thank you Flash�?it’s true, it’s all down to me. I had to get in there, bang a few (thousand) heads, pull a few ton of coals out of the fire, browbeat the Town Hall, shaft a few hundred politicians�?wives and their daughters, who begged not to be left out of the political process. As you can imagine, it’s been a tough campaign, so it’s only five pints and a curry tonight before getting into bed at midnight. I have a Galaxy to save early in the morning.

I know Mark is from that part of the world, but his politics deny him any credit.
 
The politicians wives and daughters you say. Wasn't neglecting the politicians themselves a trifle risky? Hm?

I'm no hairy Northener, I'm a slightly less hairy Midlander.

Exactly how hairy you are is not a matter for this sites knowledge. Ladies you know.
 
Ain't you got no shame, boy?
