Quote from the Express:An internal Labour Party report has revealed plans to increase fun duty and company car tax, along with mandatory road pricing and charges to park vehicles at work. Motorway speed limits will also be reduced in order for cars to travel more slowly and pollute less. And all planned road improvements will be scrapped too.
Mr Corbyn is hoping this will cut 60 percent of road trips within ten years.
But the Tories have warned a tax rise this could hit struggling motorists the hardest.
This is because the cost of petrol and diesel would go up by 13p plus inflation over the five years they would be in power.
Transport Secretary Grant Shapps said: “Corbyn is coming for your car. It is now clear that Labour have secret plans to clobber hardworking people with a barrage of tax hikes on their family car, that would leave families with less money in their pockets."
“Labour’s extreme economic policies would be a disaster for drivers."

Well that's the motorists vote lost.
