I’m not a big fan of that. End result for the citizens is that you’ve got one bit of local government stinging you in one spot and another bit of local government getting you on top. Given there’s nothing stopping another London council from putting in place another ULEZ-adjacent levy, it’s going to make driving into London confusing as fuck. I’d rather the ULEZ charge was just higher. Better a single centralised cost. Yeah, your colleagues are going to be getting some very angry phone calls.

I mean, I assume the goal is to stop driving in and around London being an option bar the essential journeys.
