Sadiq Khan's hated expansion of the Ulez scheme to outer London has failed to lower pollution levels in the capital's biggest borough, it is claimed.

The zone, which charges some motorists £12.50-a-day to use their vehicles in the city, was expanded to cover the entirety of Greater London last year.

The Mayor of London claimed that the move would help combat pollution emitted by vehicles, including harmful gas nitrogen dioxide (NO2) which is linked to respiratory issues.

However, a report by Bromley Council has found that after the Ulez was put into place in the borough there was no 'overall lowering in pollution' in the months that followed.

The borough, which is partly rural and the largest in London, saw vehicle pollutants rise after the charge was implemented on August 29, 2023, according to a report by the council's environment committee.
