I thought I was done talking about ULEZ, but here we are again. The Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) in London has popped back into the news, and for good reason. With the UK general election just around the corner, electioneering is in full swing, and both major parties are making big promises. But the latest from the Conservatives has really caught my attention – and not in a good way.
London Mayor Sadiq Khan, has expanded the ULEZ – Ultra Low Emission Zone – to cover the whole of Greater London right up to the M25 in some places, from 29th August 2023 (See first pinned video below), making London the largest low emission zone in the world.

It’s crunch time; make or break; the final countdown; zero hour; D-Day; moment of truth; the last stand… make no mistake, hold no illusions, be in no doubt – this is it.
The elections for the London Mayor happen this week on Thursday 2nd May 2024. And incumbent, Sadiq Khan is vying for an unprecedented third term in office as the most powerful man in London – some would argue, the most powerful person in the nation – he who controls the capital, controls the country?

Six months on from the expansion of ULEZ (Ultra Low Emission Zone) to cover the whole of London, in August 2023 and the London Mayor still hasn’t released impact data to prove that it’s improved the air quality in the expanded zones. And it won’t be released until after the elections in May 2024. However, I shot two videos last year, taking an ELITECH Temptop air quality meter around London, covering firstly the previous ULEZ zone in part 1 and the proposed area of expansion in Part 2. This means I can directly compare my findings today, six months on from the expansion to the data I had before, to see if there has been any improvement in air quality. This is what I do in this video. And the results may surprise you – they certainly astonished me!

BREAKING: Over £150m Awarded to Contractors for Hunting ULEZ Charge-Dodgers! In this video discover the astonishing funds being channeled into the recent ULEZ expansion. With London Mayor, Sadiq Khan, allocating a staggering £151.8million to trace drivers evading the ULEZ charge, questions arise: Is this initiative truly for London’s benefit or other interests?
With those opposing the ULEZ Expansion pinning their hopes on the next Mayoral election – this latest YouGov poll doesn’t bode well and sends out a dire warning that not enough has been done to alert and educate Londoners about the harmful socio-economic effects of the ULEZ Expansion.
Don’t fall for the Mayor of London’s latest extension to the Scrappage Scheme (one of several). there’s extra money and it’s now open to all Londoners, but you can’t apply till August 21, which is too late, and there are no cars available for reasonable money right now.
My live reaction as the Judge releases the Judicial Review verdict on the legality of London Mayor Sadiq Khan announcing an expansion to the ULEZ zone to cover the whole of Outer London. If you don’t know already, he ruled in the Mayor’s favour.
