Yes the great orator and his minions have managed to run up tickets trolling around London to be paid by taxpayers. Well if they ever decide to pay. May as well let it build up debt from interest first as that's what they're good at after all.
"London Mayor Boris Johnson is raising a stink over minor congestion charges he says President Obama's motorcade incurred while visiting his city, the London Evening Standard reports. Johnson has fined the United States 120 pounds (nearly $200 U.S. dollars) in congestion levies--10 pounds per vehicle--for the presidential motorcade used during Obama's state visit in May.
The sum may seem to be a pittance, but it is part of a much larger problem, Johnson and others say.
London officials told AFP that the American Embassy owes 5.3 million pounds ($8.7 million dollars) in unpaid congestion fines--known as C-charges--which were first established in 2003. Since the roads weren't closed during the president's visit, he is subject to the fines, Johnson says."
Read the whole article and you see why its just the London mayor and why New York isn't owed millions in just speeding fines from foreign diplomats alone.Want to bet on his odds of collecting the so called fine?But unlike the previous poster it was a news story and the liberal London mayor wanted to fine him.
No, you.
Nanny-nanny boo-boo.
That just seemed to be on a par with the intellectual level of this thread.
