Should Londoners have to live with more or less pollution?

First of all, we won the pub quiz.  We enter for fun and never think that we are going to win, but have done well when the questions have been very hard.  They were very hard this week and this is the first time we have won the quiz at the Fat Cat!  That meant £28 between the six of us.

Second, the issue of Nigel Farage being a grifter came up.  The description was more colourful than I had used, but he was the answer to the question about someone with "xenophobic, chauvinistic and racist views" though I admit that the question appeared to show some bias against Farage

Next, my son is preparing for a week without his sister.  I have reminded him that his chores will need to be done, and that he is going to have to ensure that he looks after Leia properly.  My daughter is to travel to France for a week tomorrow. She has packed ready for it and we have given her some money for this, but to be fair, have given him money, which he is already making plans to spend!

But, the title of this refers to ULEZ. I was talking with our friend Nick at the quiz, about the recent election results and the direction that Labour have taken before and since then.  Basically, Sadiq Khan has brought in ULEZ to help the people of London. Starmer appears to have stabbed him in the back over this and I strongly disagree with him over this.  A leader leads by example. If you do not back loyalty, you cannot expect loyalty. In addition to this, Labour needs to show some backbone and come out fighting. Admit that ULEZ is going to lose votes, but say that the health of those in London is more important and that if you want no action to be taken on pollution, vote Conservative. 

ULEZ has some effect on climate, but the main reason for reducing emissions is to reduce pollution. Be honest, have a simple and easy message for people to remember and keep repeating it.  If you want no action to be taken on pollution, vote Conservative.
