Tony Blair Institute Push for Pay-Per-Mile Driving | Fair Tax or Big Brother Control? | Tom Harwood
Tony Blair Wants YOU to Pay Per Mile | Tom Harwood
The Tony Blair institute has called for a shift from traditional fuel duty to a pay-per-mile road tax, charging drivers based on their distance traveled. With fuel duty revenue set to drop as electric vehicles become more popular, this pay-per-mile system could bring in billions to cover the shortfall.
Tom Harwood explores the details of the proposed tax plan, which suggests setting rates based on vehicle type and potentially tracking drivers’ journeys through GPS or black boxes. Supporters argue it’s a necessary step for public finances and environmental goals, but critics fear it could bring privacy issues and burden those who rely on cars in rural areas or for work.
Would a per-mile tax be a fair replacement for fuel duty, or just another way to hit UK motorists?
