Most recent data I've been sent shows every single #Southwark air monitoring station FAILED acceptable World Health Organization (WHO) air quality standards (10 µg/m3) 😮‍💨

In #Borough & #Bankside levels are 4x

Yesterday, Labour rejected Southwark Lib Dems amendment I proposed which focused on purifying local air

This data was collected during a period in Dec 20 and Jan 21 when traffic wasn't even as busy as normal.

Many of these sites are close to schools and playgrounds.

The Council isn't even bothering to monitor air quality in most of the borough including #Borough #Bankside

Poor air quality is a problem (and a killer) right across #Southwark

😮‍💨On Tower Bridge Rd levels are 5.1x what's acceptable
😮‍💨On Lower Rd levels are 5.3x what's acceptable
😮‍💨On Old Kent Rd levels are 5x what's acceptable
