Sadiq Khan announced a major expansion to the Ulez zone that means hundreds of thousands more motorists will pay a daily rate of £12.50 to use their cars.Mr Khan said extending the ultra-low emission zone to cover the whole of the city was "one of the toughest decisions I've taken".
"The aim is what has been done to clear the air, nobody can argue with that. I think it is a difficult year to be introducing ULEZ amidst the cost of living crisis. "It is my hope that there is some softening, and I use that word deliberately and politically, some softening of the ULEZ requirements to help those people that are struggling with the cost of living."
"We have also listened to Londoners who have said can we have a longer exception for our disabled vehicles until 2027 and we have also listened to those Londoners who have said rather than buying another vehicle, I'd like to have free bus and tram travel, so they can now get free travel cards for a year."
UkPolitoons This isn’t a timing issue. It’s fleecing many who can’t afford it, many more who don’t want it, for money to cover Khan’s incompetence. And not about air quality.
Welcome to shithole on earth Londoners enjoy your grey tax misery end of the day you voted for it twice 🤣🤣🤣
London got the best public transport network in the country. What’s the issue for commuters?
