Good. Will fade as a political issue after introduction when drivers realise it applies to the fewer than one-in-10 older vehicles that are most polluting. β€œTory-councils lose High Court bid to stop Sadiq Khan's ULEZ expansion.” mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…

The Mayor of London has been making headlines for his plan to expand ULEZ. Lets hope Sadiq Khan now turns his attention to repurposing the Silvertown Tunnel πŸ‘€ stopsilvertowntn.com #RoadsReset

In a democratic society, we should have the right to hold a placard in protest, without fear of imprisonment. Read more about those standing with #TrudiWarner goodlawproject.org/hundreds-copy-…

Revealed: Sadiq Khan, the Mayor of London, has decided to block an application from Madison Square Garden to build a London version of the Las Vegas Sphere at the Olympic Park in Stratford on the grounds of excessive light pollution. A formal statement is expected later today.

Good. #MSGSphere would've completely overwhelmed Stratford station (already one of the most crowded in London) and endangered road users in the local area by flashing adverts down to the street. Let's hope it's dead & buried and get on with finding a meaningful use for this land.

An excellent interview with Nate Higgins discussing the Sphere rejection & the need for developments that will improve #Newham residents' lives not make problems worse. A rallying call for social housing and against Stop Silvertown Tunnel Traffic and Pollution and the City Airport expansion. Stop City Airport +

When politicians play games they forget real people are on the other end of them. Gove has issued another direction stopping LLDC from carrying out Khan's rejection for 42 days while he decides if he wants to call in the app. He's had 9mths since he first indicated an interest!

Today, the UK closes its last coal-fired power plant, becoming the fifth European nation to go #BeyondCoal. At the time of the London 2012 Olympics, coal generated 40% of the UK’s power. Tonight, it drops to zero, while #wind produces enough electricity to power 92% of UK homes.
