Excellent news.
We've already binned all our London meetings, deliveries and events because of the congestion charge.
We now go to Birmingham and Manchester!

And there's more!
The London congestion charge zone will be halved after Boris Johnson, the Mayor, decided to abolish the western extension introduced last year by his predecessor, Ken Livingstone.
The decision follows a bitter dispute between the mayor and senior officials in his transport authority, who accused him of ignoring the benefits of the £8 daily charge and acting on a flawed public consultation.
Transport for London (TfL) will lose £70 million per year in income from the scheme. All profits went to public transport and fares are likely to rise.
The extension, covering Kensington and Chelsea and part of Westminster, will remain until spring 2010 as legal procedures are completed.
Mr Johnson said he was acting on the results of TfL’s consultation, in which 67 per cent of the 24,800 individual respondents and 86 per cent of businesses that responded wanted the extension to be abolished.

About time they did as people want - as Churchill said trying to tax your way to prosperity is like standing in a bucket and trying to lift yourself of the ground by the handle. Still it ain't stopping some of these muppets trying!
