A FAIR DEAL FOR THE MOTORIST |
|
|
|
Over 30 million motorists have been taken
for granted for too long. We are seen as cash cows for the limited services
we receive, and are treated unreasonably by many authorities. |
|
This website is campaigning for a fair
deal for the motorist (particularly in London, where the Mayor and TFL are
trying it on. Also in the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, with its
anti-car council). Don’t suffer in silence – the authorities are banking on
you giving up and just putting up. Thank you for your support.... |
