I wanna be a hero

Defending plans to introduce congestion charges in parts of Auckland, Dick Hubbard described the transformation of regard for London Mayor "Red" Ken Livingstone, after the implementation of the Congestion Charge in 2003, as going from "zero to hero". Their plans are to extend the chargeable areas and contrary to what Dick says, everybody is not thrilled about the prospect. This report is recent and reasonably well-balanced.

The extension of the congestion charge in London is largely about Ken doing what can be done, rather than what should be done - and he hates the rich which is what Kensington and Chelsea is all about - given I lived there for about four months!
