Really Dave that old canard?

Cyclists pay as much tax as motorists.

Bollox. No VED, and no taxation on their fuel.

But are you saying OAPs pay no tax? I've got news for you...

VED (missnamed by lots as road tax) does NOT go towards road
maintenance/building.

Who said anything about any tax being ring fenced?

The expenditure on cycle highways comes from the same pot - a mixture of
local and national taxation - as does any subsidy for OAP bus travel.
