Expanded ULEZ

Shouldn't that tax burden be offset by richer folk actually paying their taxes in their country of residence rather than swanning orff to the Cayman Islands to avoid doing so?

Until that time if ever business as usual.
Anyway perhaps some the revenue raised will be funding the cancelled leave and overtime and the extra 1000 police being drafted in to police tomorrows march.
What a nation we've become when you have to defend a cenotaph on armistice day.

You know the march isn't due to go anywhere near the Cenotaph, old sock.
Have you been feeding on the Daily Express for breakfast?

Its not the well to do of Surrey, Kent and Essex who drive old diesel cars. It's the landscape gardeners, window cleaners and shop workers, pensioners most likely to have non-compliant vehicles. 85% of charges come from the expanded zone.

There was never a problem - only a business opportunity for Khan to tax those who cannot vote him out.

Our window cleaner who lives down our street has put his prices up because he can’t afford a compliant fully fitted van. The bloke that fitted my mums aerial the other day had to load £12.50 onto the price because he can’t afford to change his vehicle. My retired next door neighbour has to pay £12.50 every time he wants to take his car off his drive. A car he has had from new.
 
Clearly they are all Tory voting gammons, So nosenout will be pleased. But thats the rub isn't. Khan's poor tax hits people who don't even own a car, because they need the services of those who've had to upgrade. A friend of mine has had to change all his appointments so that he has a ULEZ day and a not ULEZ day. He now drives more as a result.
 
Perhaps tax incentives could be implemented for working folk who want to get an EV but can't afford one - like a buy-to-let mortgage scheme?

Perhaps the whole scheme could have been put on hold for 18 months so that the natural progression to EVs would result in the same result anyway. But Khan would still have a hole in his budget and wouldn't be able to find trip to New York, telling people how wonderful he is.
 
But action on Climate Change is demanded now, so how would another 18 months help? Other cities have introduced similar schemes so why would London not follow suit?

Do you think in previous years there has not been a security presence at the cenotaph , and long before the ceremony?

You mean like mission creep where it just becomes the norm. Like I say what has this nation become.
