Today on NPR I heard a story about how the mayor of London is publicly complaining that the American ambassador refuses to pay the congestion tax to drive into central London. Ken Livingston is quite outspoken, and this time, his target is our representative in England.

"Robert Tuttle, the U.S. ambassador to Britain, refuses to pay London's $14 daily toll on cars in the city center. The embassy stopped paying the fee in July, arguing that it's a tax, and diplomats do not pay local tax. Mayor Ken Livingstone says Tuttle is behaving "like some chiseling little crook."
