STOP THE EXPANSION OF THE C CHARGE - reinstate the residents discount
To abolish the expansion on the C Charge zone, to reinstate the residents discount scheme.
Why is this important?
Millions of people are already struggling after COVID-19, to then bring in the expansion of the C Charging zone will have a huge impact on the daily lives of millions of Londoners.
With the existing C Charge zone it effects a small amount of Londoners, but with the expansion it will effect some of the poorest families in the U.K. who are already struggling to make ends meet.
To be charged £15 a day to travel to work, for childcare and for day to day essentials is shocking and will force more people to lose employment, companies to fold which will drive thousands of people to the welfare system so it becomes a vicious cycle.
The C Charge has already been increased this year during this awful pandemic which in its self is a kick in the teeth, families are at tipping point and this could be the thing that tips them over the edge.
