They tried to bribe, or bully depending on your point of view, the populace into voting for this charge by promising improvements to public transport etc. only if there was a yes vote. No wonder Manchester said No. Those improvements should be implemented anyway then, as Entwisi rightly says, people would be much more likely to use public transport and leave the car at home.
