It wasn’t the protest we need, it’s probably the protest we deserve
Since I’ve been doing a lot of content on the forthcoming ULEZ expansion (see links below) someone kindly tipped me off that a protest was going to be staged outside the headquarters of Transport for London (TFL) today. I headed down there, perhaps to lend my support, but more to see if I could find credible, knowledgeable and articulate people to confirm that the ULEZ Expansion due to come into force next August, is actually more harmful than beneficial, particularly at this present time.
Things looked promising when the organiser turned out to be Piers Corbyn of Let The UK Live party and campaign (and former Labour-leader Jeremy Corbyn’s brother), who is described in a pamphlet handed out at the event, as an astrophysicist and Director of Weather Action Long Range Forecasts, and who has apparently published numerous scientific papers, on subjects such as meteorology and cosmology.
Unfortunately, the use of ClimateCon and FakeScience hashtags in their leafleting didn’t entirely fill me with confidence, nor did my interview with the organiser, and I’m still on the hunt for further credible commentators on the ULEZ Expansion.
Here’s some actual experts talking about the ULEZ expansion:
And here are my own studied and researched videos on the topic with actual facts, data and figures you could use.
