Regarding the ULEZ expansion, this is mostly opposed to due to the cost – both to the individual motorists who aren’t yet driving compliant vehicles, and by all of the rest of us to install the regulatory infrastructure. As well over 90% of vehicles are already compliant and this number is increasing every day, it seems that spending tens of millions of pounds to address a problem that will have gone away on its own in the next few years is massively excessive, especially in this financially stretched time. Could the mayor not think of something more useful to spend this money on – plugging the funding gap for social care perhaps? Or is it more important to spend vast sums on this huge high-profile vanity project that will be redundant as soon as it is delivered? My main point though is that talk of ULEZ expansion has diverted attention from the main point of this posting – how LBH have made major changes in our communities against the clear objections of those that live there with no mandate and no supporting scientific evidence, and continue to lie to us to justify these changes. The fact that our own councillor continues to act against those he is paid to support would seem to make his position untenable, but that’s politics. |
