I heard Khan on LBC the other day. The big problem is that the Tories brought in an order (I forget the name) that means all cities have a version of ULEZ.

Other cities have bought in their ULEZs but no one has kicked up a big fuss about it, only about London. Also, the Tories have been happily giving financial support to the other cities to help setup ULEZ but won't give anything to London.

I do think it's funny that despite all their machinations they only barely won that seat. It rather goes to show how much of a lame duck they are now.

And of course they are now facing yet another by-election where the constituents aren't particularly happy with the way the Tories handled the situation. Good old Nads, making life equally difficult for everyone.
