    Permits?

    The point is that Agenda 21 is encroaching into every aspect of life and it's designed to make the masses dependent on mass transit and to give up independence of vehicle ownership. Easier to control people if they don't live in the burbs or rural areas.

    What about permits?
    If you also agree that an animals suffering should be avoided rather than encouraged, consider what steps you can take.

    I am not aware of any required permits for cars anywhere in the U.K.

    Oh of course parking - I’ve only ever seen it applied to residents parking, I would not be the slightest bit surprised to learn that people were being overcharged for parking in central London.

    You are charged to park at your residence and see nothing wrong with it

    Driving is taxed here way more than most people think. They still haven't gotten around to taxing us for parking on our own property though.
