Apologies to everyone who does not live or work in London.

Boris is increasing BUS FARES by over 12% - TUBE FARES by 4% and the CONGESTION CHARGE by 25%.

I warned that the average rises next year would be around 20 - 30% with 10 - 50% being the range in inflation.

As usual it is those people who work who are being taxed yet again.

To take a car into London for a job will cost around £30 - £50 a day. Which is a massive tax on working. That excludes fuel cost. For commuters the addition bus costs will add money as well.

It seems that next year every Council and Government run enterprise will rack up massive rises in the cost of services for everyone.

At the same time most people are being asked to take wage freezes and cuts AND many businesses are struggling just to keep afloat.

Along with the 2.5% increase in VAT coming in January - next year could see a total devastation of what is left in the economy.

Worrying times ( Unless you work for GOLDMAN SACHS )
