Axe road tax and fuel duty says Nick Clegg
Road tax and fuel duty should be axed - but drivers would then be charged up to 12p a kilometre - under plans put forward by Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg. The most polluting vehicles would incur a higher "showroom tax" and hauliers face a national lorry road user charge under a "sustainable and fair" system. However, Mr Clegg said his plans for higher Vehicle Excise Duty rates - rising to £2,000 a year on the most polluting cars - would only be a temporary measure until the tax was scrapped altogether within 10 years of a Lib Dem government.

Lib Dems Call for Halt to 'Headlong Rush' Towards a New Giant Incinerator for Rookery South Pit
Bedford Borough Liberal Democrats are demanding that plans for a giant incinerator at Rookery South Pit near Stewartby are assessed on equal terms along with other waste treatment options to ensure that a cleaner, more environmentally friendly solution to the problem of waste disposal is used. At last night's meeting of the Implementation Executive the Lib Dems won approval for their proposal that such an assessment be made a condition of the Borough Council's support for any further spending by the County Council on the project to procure a new waste treatment site.
