Scottish drivers to destroy planet, claim WWF
In reporting the great news that all tolls have finally been removed from Scottish roads, the BBC have yet again managed to embarrass themselves. They just couldn't resist the opportunity to quote the WWF's claim that this will contribute to man-made Global Warming.
That will be because of the huge increase in traffic taking the shorter routes across the now free bridges instead of driving the long way round, I presume. Or will it be because of the significant increase in business and tourists, as claimed by the SNP, who stayed away before because they couldn't afford the £1 charge; and they say Scots are tight!
