Livingstone's Law of Unintended Consequences

Kensington and Chelsea will be very quiet on Monday as the Congestion Zone is extended to those areas. People who used to drive to the excellent shops in the area will no longer do so. The number of customers will go down by anything up to 20%. Some businesses will be unable to continue trading and go bust. Thanks Ken.

Residents in Kensignton & Chelsea will get a 90% discount on their congestion charge. But one side effect of this is they are now free to drive into the Centre of London for no extra charge. So the centre will become even more congested. Thanks Ken.
