@ChrisMayLA6 also many/most on benefits work and have families. Removing their ability to drive may remove their ability to get to or undertake their work or get their children to child care. So will they then be able to claim benefits now they are unemployed or will they, and their family, be left to starve to teach them a lesson?

@Beedazzled

likely the latter.... no better incentivisation to join the low-wage (gig) economy than starvation


@ChrisMayLA6 @Beedazzled

There are large parts of the UK with zero to poor public transport.

I live in Cornwall. One of the poorest regions of the UK. Shameful to and expensive public transport. And if you can't drive you're screwed. And no there aren't plentiful jobs within walking or cycling distance.

Shame on Starmer.
