So is not getting stabbed but don’t see him doing anything about that
Can someone explain to me why, if above headline is true, the ULEZ does not apply to vehicles of 3.5 tonnes or more? My 2013 Bluemotion VW Golf with stop-start tech etc is non-compliant and I can no longer drive to my job in West Drayton without paying £12.50 per day – or spending £20K on a new car.
But if I were to swap my clean Golf for a class 2 LGV (large goods vehicle), around 7.5 tonnes weight and which produces vastly more particulate exhaust etc, then I would have ZERO daily charge to pay for entering ULEZ 🤔
What the hell is going on?
Clean air, clean water and privacy is a right for all.
Anti-ULEZ is the new Brexit. It has the same levels of disinformation being peddled on social media, with people enthusiastically repeating the lies over and over again.
The anti-ULEZ proponents are the same people who pushed Brexit – the very idea of doing something that might help other people is anathema to them.
He claims 9 out of 10 cars are compliant, so where is this unclean air coming from then? It’s not the cars….
But we know its a lie, we have had people testing roadside air quality and its fine.
He really needs to be removed from office over this, the amount of lying , fudging figures, telling the BBC not to publish news on it unless he approves it , ignoring the people he is suppose to serve, paying Imperial College London £1 million for a study on air quality, then he tries to suppress the other study done independently , with no conflict of interest because it shows a very different finding to the one he paid for.
It all just stinks, and shows exactly what is wrong with politics in this country. He needs to go.
“You bought a diesel car, because we told you diesel is good. Turns out we were wrong, but we won’t admit it. We only want the poor off the road, so if you can’t afford £12.5 a day, tough luck you povvo. You should have gotten yourself a petrol car.”
That’s the message I see.
Make ULEZ charge proportional to wealth, so the rich will pay £3k a day or more if they want to pollute.
