ULEZ Letter

[Mr Kobayashi]

How many of the 90% have come out of a family budget?

No idea.

As the rates have gone up gradually, looks like it's been a mix of natural replacement and people getting rid of bangers earlier than normal.

 

[Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese]

And when they change the criteria yet again more people will need newer cars, 10% is a lot of cars, yet someone said it would only affect 2% I wish they’d make their minds up.

Also not including non compliant cars outside the zone commuting into it

Actually it does.

Over 90 per cent of cars driving in outer London now meet the ULEZ standards​

A sample on an 'average day' so only a snapshot of a moment in time really. I think the number would be more useful than a % to get a sense of scale - probably why it's not there.

If it isn't available online, and hasn't been answered, why don't you write an FOI request and post the response on here then?

Because ultimately I'm not that arsed. I've only spent about 4 of the last 8 months living/working there and my car when I need to use it is compliant.

Yeah, I said to Mrs Ewing t'other day when we were whizzing up the M1 at a steady 60 that yer don't see anything like the number of old bangers that used to be on the road.

 

[MouldensChippy]

That still not that what that says, it's what you sent to see.

It's there in black and white from one of his biggest fans. There is official documentation confirming all of it from beginning up to where we are now. The bloke is a charlatan. This is but one of his many cock ups that he accepts no responsibility for, and we're not talking just about his time as Metro Mayor, stretching back to him being a cabinet member and minister of state for health.

Blokes a wrong'n, and every bit as slippery as Boris used to be !

I think cars generally age better - particularly cosmetically (rust etc).

Leasing seems to be the way forward for many but to me it’s like renting a house, dead money, you often see many complaining they can’t save for a mortgage whilst driving brand new mercs and BMWs, I would think many are company cars as well.

Typical slapped arse nonsense. They lost a vote. It happens, but I'm sure this will end up being the fault of trump, Putin, farage, Cambridge analytica, Elon musk, or mark Zuckerberg again.

Typical slapped arse reply.

Here is an FOI request 2nd time round.. what car do YOU drive, just to give me an indication of how it sits with your views

When that is expanded what about those that live outside the zone that need to commute into the larger zone, there is no help for them as they don’t live in the boroughs, I suspect quite a few commute in as living outside the London boroughs will be cheaper, basically outside the m25.

Strange reply, mate. Who’s the ‘slapped arse’ as I see Valent as a none political party who specialise in getting the truth out there.

It's from people already driving in the area so it would include commuters.

Do you own it by choice or is it a Company vehicle owned by someone else

Is it such a surprise? The rules for political advertising still hark back to when each party had a couple of tv ads and half a dozen posters during a campaign - all scrutinised to death.

Now, multiple organisations will be micro-targeting thousands of different ads via Facebook etc, with no scrutiny whatsoever.

There were multiple stories coming out after Uxbridge, from Labour canvassers who were surprised at just how many people erroneously thought they would be hit by the ULEZ charges.
