Hated ULEZ extension a ‘dark day for drivers,’ says Sadiq Khan’s Tory mayoral rival as she urges voters to boot him out

MORE drivers have been infected with Sadiq Khan’s hated Ultra Low Emission Zone as of today.

His Tory rival Susan Hall branded the ULEZ extension a “dark day for motorists” – and told voters to end the tax raid by throwing it out.

The £12.50 daily charge has been extended to all London boroughs at one minute past midnight under orders from the Labor mayor.

Some shop and school car owners who faced charges today gave Mr Khan both barrels as the expansion began.

Mrs Hall said: “This is a dark day for motorists. This will be a disaster for families, small businesses and charities.

“It’s nothing more than tax evasion that will have only a negligible effect on air quality.”

And the court overturned Ulez’s convictions against scaffolder Noel Willcox, 48, after he claimed they had not clearly stated the charges.

But last night the mayor issued a 3,600-word defense of his “difficult but necessary decision” to expand the Ulez catchment.

He said: “I am not prepared to stand idly by when we have the ability to save lives and solve the climate crisis.”

Transport Minister Mark Harper said: “Sadiq Khan’s decision to extend ULEZ, backed by Labor leader Sir Keir Starmer, is the latest salvo in Labour’s war on drivers.

“The reality of Labor politicians in office is ideological politics that hits hard at hardworking drivers.”

FairFuel UK’s Howard Cox accused Mr Khan of punishing drivers to follow his “misinformed green dream”.

He said: “Probably one of the most hated policies to ever hit motorists is now in place.”

John O’Connell of the Taxpayers’ Association added: “The expansion of ULEZ is bad news for motorists in London and beyond.

“As hard-pressed motorists face coughing up another levy, motorists elsewhere fear similar schemes will spread to their areas.“
