Nano Ulez is not a green policy. It has nothing to do with zero immisions. It is to stop the 4 thousand odd people that die prematurely in London, every year.

The Mayor doesn't like working class people. He wants to drive them out of London.

Bottom line is something needs to be done about London's air quality.
Look here:
addresspollution.org
You can search by postcode, score goes from 0 - 100, lowest is best. I did our address here in Northumberland, score was 7. I picked a central London postcode to check, score was 99.
People should not have to live in that much pollution.

Lewisham, which has been in ULEZ since ULEZ was a thing. We also have LTNs. Absolutely no issue with it from anyone on my road.
A road which @Anton_Berg is full of working class people with no intention of leaving.

The problem with london is not cars but the ammount of people who work there. There is no need to have such a concentrated ammount of people in such a small place. Move more jobs north make it more and more unafoardable to live and work in the **** hole.

12 though, which isn't that bad considering I live fairly close to Teesport.

Even when you put your exact address in ? It's just a API connection to Google maps BTW.

What we in this area should be arguing about is a public transport infrastructure of a quality similar to that in the ULEZ zone.

Yeah, I know it's nothing sinister haha, just was a little bit disconcerting!

14 for my address and, whilst I live on Teesside, I'd imagine I live further from Teesport than you (as you say you live 'fairly close').
I do live on a main road though, which just goes to demonstrate the point. It's cars which cause the greatest problem with air pollution, not industry.

In the late 80's or early 90's there was a group monitoring pollution across Teesside. The worst area was Acklam Road in Boro, pre Marton crawl days.
22 here due to proximity to the A19.

Has anyone noticed a London ULEZ- scrappage effect on the used car market in Teesside? Are compliant cars going up in price; non-compliant going down?
Should be some bargains if you don't mind a 520 mile round trip to deliver/collect.

Inner London got 3 years. I meant an additional 1 year from today if it wasn’t clear!
If you live in an area with decent public transport, you eventually get used to not having a car. Also saves you a bit of money on insurance, petrol, tax and car maintenance. Get a bike for the short journeys or walk. Hire a car when you need it. A lot of this is behavioral economics and people used to having cars. We can live without all of us having one.

Clearly you have NEVER lived in London. You are confusing Inner and Outer London. In Sutton where I live the only other option to a car is a limited bus service. Come down and see what I mean if you think all London drivers are d**heads.

So vote for a party that ensures the rich pay their fair share in taxes, and doesn't privatise public transport making it too expensive and a rubbish service for the poor, that in itself is a separate issue to air quality.
