Road Pricing will go ahead despite 1.6 million signing the petition, because of an EU law the government has signed up to.
A directive on electronic toll collections has committed Britain to a system of road charging which is run from Brussels.
UK Independence Party transport spokesman Mike Nattrass condemned the plans as "a disgraceful scheme to spy on people and take their money at the same time."
"This government signed up to Directive 2004/52 which will ensure the entire road pricing schemes in EU countries are the same, and can be linked to Galileo.
"The Transport Secretary might say he welcomes a debate, but in reality we have very little choice.
"The fact of the matter is that Galileo has to be paid for somehow. And as usual, it is the tax payer who has to foot the bill for something they were never even asked about. The British tax payer has already paid £200 million into it - what's a few more million to this government and the EU?"
Mr Nattrass added, "Is there no area of life this government and the EU won't pry into, and no area of our pockets they won't take money from?"
Ends
Galileo exists to challenge the (free) American GPS system. It is near bankrupt, the only way that the EU can afford to fund it is to find ways to pay for it, either out of direct or indirect taxation. Because our Government support the project and supports the directive it must either pay straight, or pay a licensing fee for using its road pricing facility.
Dont vote for any of the main party's they are traitors to ALL of the people of the UK. Vote UKIP !!!
