“You Are A LIAR And A COWARD!” | Julia Hartley-Brewer BLASTS Sadiq Khan Over His ULEZ Expansion
London has become the world’s largest pollution charging area after the ultra-low emission zone (Ulez) was expanded to include the whole of the capital.
People who drive in the zone in a vehicle which does not meet minimum emissions standards are now required to pay a £12.50 daily fee or risk a £180 fine, reduced to £90 if paid within 14 days.
TalkTV’s Julia Hartley-Brewer sends a message to Sadiq Khan as his Ulez expansion begins in London.
In an interview with the PA news agency, the Labour mayor said: “The vast majority of Londoners want to see clean air and I recognise there are some Londoners with genuine concerns.
“My job is to try and address those concerns and I have been doing that.”
Mr Khan said he was “disappointed” at the lack of Government support for the policy and its accompanying scrappage scheme.
He expressed frustration that the scrappage programme has no Government funding, unlike those run in several other English cities.
He said: “It was this Government that gave financial support to cities like Bristol, Birmingham and Portsmouth towards their clean air zones.
“If clean air is right for them then why isn’t clean air right for London?”
