    Not from what I’ve read but if you’re saying it is the number of fines then surely that means that the number of no complaint cars in reality will be smaller again as some of those fines will be repeat offenders will they not?

    The big point is a tiny minority of motorists are temporarily inconvenienced to the convenience of nearly 9m Londoners. The health benefits to Londoners and therefore the benefits to the NHS are indisputable from ULEZ. Those benefits will also only increase thanks to the expansion. Frankly...

    Playing dumb again? The 200K isn’t calculated it’s the actual data based on the daily average over a 1 month period. It completely dismisses the 700k and not surprisingly as the 700k was always a worse case scenario based on flawed assumptions such as all cars registered before Euro 6 and Euro 4...

    Actually they haven’t. They used the word “could” but then worked on the premise that every diesel car registered before Sept 2015 isn’t compliant and every petrol car registered before Jan 2006 isn’t compliant. We’ve already dispelled that myth with facts. That article was also written before...

    Again with the deliberately stupid. If the price guide of the land rover is £18,000 that’s £18,000 despite not being EURO 6, so it’s still the value. Might be more difficult to sell in London but that’s still the value. Sell it and buy a BMW or Volvo equivalent instead which will almost...

    It’s pretty clear whatever I say you’re either going to add your own context or move the goalposts again and again. I answered your gotcha directly with fact. Euro 6 came in in 2014 for manufacturing and then 2015 for registration and the truth is car manufacturers knew this was coming and were...

    Extreme E racing series changing from battery to Hydrogen https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/motorsport/articles/cl4yng1rnydo Told you. It’s coming. Battery powered electric vehicles are just a stopgap.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    You really are a moron. Another context adder thinking it means they’ve outsmarted you. As I said in a previous post there’s a ton of older cars that are ULEZ compliant, you just need to buy smarter, which is why it’s bypassed you. You can google what’s compliant very easily, what car have done...

    You’d be amazed how many classic car owners don’t know that. My best mate has a collection of classic cars and I went with him to an event at Gaydon last year and I must of heard Sadiq Khan is trying to ban classic cars half a dozen times. I think one person read it on social media so it must be...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    You’re adding your own context there, I never remotely suggested that. The point is that there’s a myth that you need an expensive modern car to beat ULEZ. You just trotted it out yourself. The fact is by buying smarter you can buy a cheaper older car and beat ULEZ. You could buy a 20 year old...

    Tons of older cars qualify. I was reading an article in The Mail of all publications about it. Tons of old jaguars, BMW’s, Audi’s, Bentley continentals and at the other end of the scale any petrol mini. So in the case of the mini a 24 year old car is compliant.

    I see the Tories have rebranded as a fact checking service again on social media. Tax Check UK. Dodgy cunts. They just about got away with it last time as they had a weight of populism behind them. Just looks desperate this time and set to backfire like the rest of their campaign.

    Unless you’re a Christian or any of the other minority religions. Christians especially get a lot of persecution, I think they’re the smallest minority group and don’t have freedom to celebrate their religion openly due to persecution in general, I don’t think it’s an official stance from...

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    How’s that going to save him face? His whole reasoning was to stop the expansion of NATO. Now you think he’s going to willingly accept the expansion of NATO to save face. You also seem to have mistaken him for a reasonable man, someone who can be negotiated with.

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    So that would mean that Russia withdraws completely including Crimea? Otherwise they’ll still be invading Ukraine. Also we’ve already done this in 1994. It meant nothing to Putin.

    I never even remotely suggested that it’s killing poor people in the Andes, you’re adding your own context. I’m talking about eco systems, eco systems that took thousands and thousands of years to evolve. A good example is the Bonneville Salt Flats in America, Mecca of land speed records. They...

    Doesn’t matter where the vehicle is made, chances are the battery was made in China. There’s a reason it’s the top producing CO2 country and that’s because it’s the world’s factory, everything from lithium cells to semiconductors, we count that as china’s emissions not a production line in the...

    General election poll

    If this poll is anything to go by then the Tories really are fucked. It points to the worst case scenario for the Tories and the real possibility of the Lib Dem’s in opposition.

    I think they’ve pledged in their manifesto to only do one major fiscal budget in any 12 month period. So expect one when they get in inline with their manifesto and then nothing for 12 months. Who knows what the picture will be in 12 months. If they can do something to grow the economy money...

    3500kgs is the max you can drive on a modern car license. So a van. If you passed your test before a certain date you have grandfather rights and can drive upto 7500kgs. Smallest unarticulated lorry.
