"Dash for Diesel"

I want one too!

BT, the point is that Gordon Brown introduced new taxes on vehicle emissions. Even though he was well aware that diesels were more polluting, he made the case that they were "greener" than petrol cars and adjusted the taxes to match.
It now transpires that he did this because it would have been politically damaging to tax diesel cars on their emissions. (Read the article in the OP)

The result? Every other car on our roads is now a dirty diesel (including mine!)

The Labour party claim to have green credentials. Judge them by what they do, not what they say.

Science always discovers a new theory which superseded the last. I recently bought a new diesel and the Renault stickers on the back window lead me to believe I am a green god!
