Low Traffic Neighbourhoods, or LTNs, reduce traffic in residential streets, and improve access for pedestrians and cyclists with dedicated lanes, wider pavements and planters blocking off vehicle access.
Speed limits of 20mph are designed to reduce the severity of injuries suffered in accidents.
How the fuck has this become a left/right culture war issue?
They won a by-election by opposing the ULEZ expansion, so now he thinks that reversing any policy which might upset car drivers is a general election winning policy.
Sadly, he’s probably right.
I prefer to say they ‘barely clung onto a previously pretty safe seat whilst using a wedge issue as a bludgeon to beat the opposition’.
If it was a Tory mayor pushing it they’d have got absolutely fucking obliterated.
It was Boris who introduced the idea of ULEZ and the Tory Party who endorsed it. It was their policy to begin with!
How did selling a shackle to the common people that also isolates them from each other and helps keep society stratified, therefore breaking social cohesion, became a left/right issue? I can’t quite put my finger on it…
Well when you put it like that 😂
when all you have is a hammer everythings a nail #torymanifesto2024
Because political necromancy has become the order of the day
You’d think tackling air pollution would have cross party consensus but nothing is off limits to populists
