The Opposition to Urban Tolling Alliance has challenged Dr Roelof Botha to a public debate.

This follows comments he made regarding e-tolls stating that those we do not pay taxes should shut up about e-tolling. 

Outa’s John Clarke said Botha needs to apogees and it is clear that he believes that e-tolling is pro-poor.

“It was a ridiculous comment to make and it is retractable so we acknowledge that its but not for us as OUTA to be in a position to accept it. The poor need to hear it and need to hear his case.

What we have proposed is that they have a debate where Roelof Botha, myself and two other people on the other side, in a basically have a helpfully construction intellectual engagement as to whether or not e-tolling is pro-poor or not.” Clarke added.
