Times article - Commuters face big increase in fares
Saw this just published in 'The Times', have to say I'm rather peeved. Yet again the rail passenger shoulders the burden whilst motorists get an easy ride, because political expedience. Is this government in any way serious about combatting climate change or more interested in winning votes...

Ah, that nonsense again, assuming that the published “net worth” of ”rich people” 1) exists; 2) is liquid and 3) is within the jurisdiction, like a cow bursting to be milked.A 10% windfall tax on net worth would raise £1.5 trillion, paying all covid debt off, and raising enough to reinvest in a green economy.
