Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

In the blue corner...

The Tories propose charging all trucks for the distance they trayel on UK roads, and reducing fuel duty or VED for British operators. Road building projects would be funded by private investment Vosa, the DVLA and the DSA would be merged.
