ULEZ: £12.50 daily charge introduced across London<\/h3>\n

Locals have been left furious at Sadiq Khan’s new Ultra Low Emissions Zone (ULEZ) expansion which was widened to cover Outer London boroughs from today (29 August).<\/p>\n

Residents are concerned the new fees would have a \u201cknock-on effect\u201d for everyone while some accepted they would be forced to pay the daily \u00a312.50 charge.<\/p>\n

Nigel Farage found the frustrated locals in Cudham, a rural village in Bromley right on the border of Kent.<\/p>\n

Speaking to GB News, Ronnie Townsend, a local resident and keen horse rider raised fears people\u2019s hobbies could come under threat.<\/p>\n

When asked what her biggest fear over ULEZ was, she said: \u201cI think it’s all the non-compliant vehicles. None of these vehicles are compliant yet some of them there\u2019s nothing wrong with them.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe scrappage isn\u2019t going to cover new horseboxes and then it affects our hobbies and everybody else from the equestrian industry.<\/p>\n

\u201cFarriers, vets, they are all coming from Kent, Surrey then our prices will go up. So it has a knock-on effect for everybody.\u201d<\/p>\n

Motorised horseboxes are being sold online for around \u00a35,000, much higher than Khan\u2019s current scrappage scheme offer.<\/p>\n

The Mayor has promised to pay out \u00a32,000 for every Londoner who gets rid of their non-compliant petrol or diesel car.<\/p>\n

However, in many cases, this will not cover an adequate replacement or could lead to shortages of much-needed equipment.<\/p>\n

Gemma Brackstone, from Downe Livery Stables has stressed it’s not as simple as just swapping out vital tools.<\/p>\n

She commented: \u201cIf everyone got rid of their non-compliant horseboxes there aren’t enough transporters to do that.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere isn’t enough encouragement for people to do that. This is a hard job to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

Philip Hatch, another local Bromley resident has accepted he will have to face the charges as he doesn\u2019t want to scrap his Land Rover.<\/p>\n

It means he will be liable to pay around \u00a387.50 per week or \u00a3375 per month if he uses his vehicle every day.<\/p>\n

Hatch commented: \u201cI\u2019m just going to have to spend the \u00a312.50 a day because I don’t want to spend \u00a320,000 to get rid of a perfectly good car.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo how\u2019s that going to improve air quality? It’s not. It\u2019s just going to put \u00a312.50 in their pockets.\u201d<\/p>\n
