The right (Conservative) and far right (Reform) parties both say they will abolish low-emission zones and other measures to reduce pointing traffic.

They made it into a culture war topic.

The amount of wailing about this was unbelievable. London is a terrible city for driving in in the first place, and the idea of 10% of them having to change cars provoked totally absurd responses.

We're going to see the same when EV-only mandates, true zero emissions zones, start appearing across the next decade.

The right latches onto anything where a small minority are upset and amplify it. They are the ultimate rage baiters.

Fact check, the conservatives want to block the expansion into outer London. Reform wants to end them all.
