After 5 months, numerous chasers, an incorrect response that had to be re-worded and a complaint to the ICO, I finally have the results from DVLA of my investigations into how many road vehicles in the GLA postcodes are ULEZ-Non-Compliant.

The figures below are for the 22 postcodes that approximate to the GLA area (as DVLA cannot segregate by GLA boundary), and are as at February 11th – that is, seventeen months after the ULEZ expansion was announced, six months after it was implemented, and even after many vehicles have now been sold out of London or scrapped. The categories and parameters used are those adopted by TfL to define compliance. The results are still quite shocking, in line with expectations, and NOTHING like the figures that Khan has claimed repeatedly:

Summary

13.56% petrol cars - Non Compliant.

48.11% petrol light commercials - Non Compliant.

27.70% motorcycles - Non Compliant.

39.35% diesel cars - Non Compliant.

37.62% diesel light commercials - Non Compliant.

21.13% total Non Compliant (at Feb 2024)

In all, 612,233 of 2,897,705 vehicles registered in the GLA are non-compliant.

It is not possible to segregate the results into the various ULEZ bands (original, first expansion and second expansion), but it is highly likely that the figures are rather worse for the outer “doughnut” than for central London.

If “9 out of 10 cars seen driving in outer London” are complaint as Khan claims, the explanation is clear:

•The results were based on a small number of cameras, before he began wholesale installation

•Some of the non-compliant cars are parked up, waiting for May 2nd

•Many are used less often as the owners cannot afford £12.50 per day to use them

So, over 1 in 5 London vehicles are now taxed by Khan and TfL. Car-dependant people are imprisoned and lonely in their homes, shift-working key workers are penalised for their inability to use public transport, small businesses are losing customers, tradesmen who used to come into the GLA area to work cannot now afford to, and the poorest both in London and its surrounding areas are being pushed over the financial precipice during a cost of living crisis.

And for what? In pursuit of a bare-faced lie – that 4000 un-named people in London allegedly die every year through road pollution. And against the recommendations of TfL’s own Jacobs report, which is based entirely on guesstimates and is muted in its enthusiasm for the ULEZ expansion.

However, if we all pay £12.50 per day, we can carry on killing these 4000 people. Surely, it isn’t just about the money?

GET KHAN OUT.

Scotland spent 3 years considering the laws on hate crimes before the Bill was introduced in 2020.
4 more years, after being voted into law and police training to deal with complaints, it came into force.
It took @jk_rowling less than 24 hours to demonstrate why it is ludicrous.

Sadiq Khan has closed Eltham Police Station, the Welling Police Base and the front counter at Marlowe House, Sidcup.

He has overseen a record rise in crime, especially knife and vehicle crime.

That’s why I’m backing @Councillorsuzie in May to make Bexley and London safer.

[Alex Armstrong @Alexarmstrong]

Sadiq Khan’s legacy:
💰 772 six figure earners in TfL alone
💰 18 TfL employees on over £250,000
💰 Sadiq paid himself £171,587 in 2022-23, up £21,000 from four years ago

What do you get?
💸 4.99% council tax increase
💸 ULEZ tax
💸 Mayoral tax doubled to £471
🔪 Knife crime up
🔪 Acid attack capital of the world
🔪 Shoplifting up 48%
🔪 Muggings and picketing up x3

He’s filling his mates and his own pockets, laughing at you in his bullet proof Range Rover Sentinel paid for by the taxpayer.
