More policy inanity

The congestion charge exemption for sub-75 g/km vehicles ends in Oct 2021, and from 2025, zero emissions cars will lose their exemption too. Sadiq Khan’s rationale?

Meanwhile, those weapons of mass distraction, danger and delay – traffic lights – continue to multiply emissions by a factor of up to 29 times.
