Having recently come back from holidaying "down south" the disel was far cheaper than in Hull, so please don't patronise.
Like I have already said, it wouldn't be difficult to implement a relative scale, with places such as Cambridge at the top and Hull at the bottom. The data is available I'm sure.
Just paid £2.60 to park my car for 45 minutes in Maidstone I guess we deserve it for voting in the Conversatives around here.

No, you deserve to be embarrased about the nasty way they are treating the poor and vunerable members of society. I am not poor by any means in the true sense, but I am disabled and the way they have treated us is dispicable.
If you think its that expensive to live in Kent that you need "extra money" than why not move up North? Works both ways.

No, thats why I have questioned just how it will work. Will the North get the cuts or the South get the rise? Whichever way it will cause unrest.

Basically the Tories want to have London as this Super rich city state, with the rest of the nation employed as Thralls, servicing the needs of the Metropolitan elite.
In the modern era of mobility there is an argument that things like the London Weighting along with the disproportionately large housing benefit subsidy London receives, are actually helping drive up the house price differentials between London and the rest of the UK.
As discussed by other posters however. Other areas of the country are often just as expensive eg food, fuel. Or even more expensive, Public transport, council tax etc.

What? Where has this come from? You've completely lost me there.

It is expensive to live here but I wasn't complaining about it.

You said that you deserve the high parking fees because you voted in the Tories. I just told you what, imo you really deserve and that is to be embarrassed about the way they are going about things and treating vunerable members of society.
I actually didn't think that was difficult to understand
