You see what happens, anti-ULEZ voters? You give a hint of wanting to use your cars, and desperate Sunak promises to let you drive like Mad Max in a school zone so long as you please, please vote for him.
Wholeheartedly disagree. The direction of travel should be 20mph in urban / residential areas with expansion of routes for pedestrians and cyclists.
A backwards step. Desperate and ill thought out.
The sadder thing is that Labour will likely offer the same or similar. There's no hope for progressive change in the UK.
If the carbon monoxide fumes don't get the kids then the cars will. I suppose it is one way to cut down on school costs.
