What is it with that Phillip Hammond? No sooner does he declare an end to the War on Motorists, than his government put up VAT, petrol tax, and inflation. It'll be interest rates next.
Hard pressed motorists are faced with some difficult choices. Spending money on essentials like filling the tank is of course sacrosanct, so other areas of expenditure will have to 'take the hit'.

Which are better than bicycles. Duh! We don't need bicycles! We have already upgraded!

This provides unequivocal proof that all cyclists are drug-addled hippies. You can see them, in the video.
