#BrownCarGuy – News, Views & Reviews!
Is it some next-level stupidity or misguided bravado that compels racists to unload on a channel called ‘Brown Car Guy’? And FYI, just to be clear, it’s not the car that’s brown!

To go with the forthcoming ULEZ Expansion in August, London Mayor Sadiq Khan has announced the biggest ever vehicle scrappage scheme.
Report from the Anti-ULEZ protest on 28 January 2023, at Trafalgar Square. We speak to the community directly affected and concerned by the ULEZ Expansion due at the end of August this year across the whole of Greater London. Strong views, valid points, high passion – watch now!
As justification for the ULEZ Expansion to the whole of London, the thing you keep hearing from Mayor Sadiq Khan is that it’ll save 4000 lives. Those death are linked to respiratory, lung cancer and cardiovascular diseases. Though surely they can’t all just be directly linked to air pollution caused by cars. As tragic as it absolutely is, there is in fact only one death registered in London that’s officially listed as due to air pollution. So where is the 4000 figure from? Watch this – you’ll be shocked!
Despite the fact that the ULEZ expansion across the whole of outer London will have little to no impact on the air we breathe according to Transport for London’s own report, Mayor Sadiq Khan, insists on going ahead with in August saying ‘I’m not going to apologise for taking bold action to fix London’s air.’ Well okay. But was he watching ITV News yesterday?
The ULEZ expansion will hit NHS care workers the hardest. This will endanger lives even though saving and prolonging lives is supposedly the premise of the ULEZ Expansion according to London Mayor Sadiq Khan.
London Mayor wants to price us out of cars and push us to using public transport in the name of reducing toxic air pollution, improving Londoner’s healths and saving lives.
Lately, I’ve had a few messages and comments on my content from people who are really concerned about ULEZ expanding to Greater London from the end of August, and the negative impact it will have on their lives. I might finally have some good news for them.
ULEZ Expansion – which will cost London 100s of millions in infrastructure and scrappage schemes, will have a virtually negligible impact benefitting the climate or London’s toxic pollution, according to Transport of London’s own commissioned report. A report that Mayor Sadiq Khan should be completely familiar with, but doesn’t appear to recognise his own data when he’s confronted by it!
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.
