ULEZ: Sadiq Khan’s claims about deaths due to pollution are misleading & wrong

Our new in-depth report, created with Climate Debate UK, shows neither the UK Health Security Agency or Committee on the Medical Effects of Air Pollutants found evidence of a link between the air pollution scientific literature & Khan's ridiculous "4,000 deaths a year" claim: https://togetherdeclaration.org/ulez

In fact Official Office for National Statistics data for TWENTY YEARS from 2001-2021 report only ONE person recorded as death due to bad air in London (and unfortunately they were chronically ill already)

It's like deja vu all over again... we seem to have a politician using "modelling" from Imperial College to "scare the pants off everyone", in attempt to force through a particular agenda

The truth is that ULEZ expansion is simply an anti-democratic tax on the worst-off and small businesses, while creating an ever more intrusive surveillance network

Wow

"Nudgers" Michie, Reicher, Drury & West disown Covid fear tactics

But didn't they also put their names to the infamous SAGE report to Govt that recommended:

"The perceived level of personal threat needs to be increased... using hard-hitting emotional messaging"

?

2015: Advertising Standards Authority rules Transport for London / "Mayor of London" claim that original ULEZ would "reduce vehicle pollution by half" was "misleading"

Do we detect a bit of a pattern?

No to ULEZ expansion

ULEZ:

"Our team checked the Office for National Statistics figure on deaths caused by pollution.

Between 2001-2021 (20 yrs), ONE death was caused by car emissions in London.

There's a vast disparity between Sadiq Khan's claims & what's suggested by ONS"

"There's a general conversation which says people are the problem, not the solution; that nature comes first & humanity a very poor second.

"Let's be bold & confront some of those broader conversations, and talk much more positively about why mobility is a benefit. It's nobody's business why we travel"

"Canada secretly blacklisted 201 companies sympathetic to Freedom Convoy, emailed list to fin service providers"

Sympathise with protesters vs 3rd year of China-style restrictions & attacks on bodily autonomy - & get debanked?

We need protecting in UK

Ignoring the public & treating us with contempt seems to be a new normal for some elected

We believe the public, us, should be at the heart of decisions - traffic, housing, economy

The authoritarian crusade against the car

“The similarity between the technocratic authoritarianism of the lockdowns and the anti-car movement is no mere coincidence”

140,000 ‘ghost children’ never returned to UK schools after lockdowns

Lockdowns 'an unplanned social experiment' - Harriet Sergeant

Why was UK's original pandemic plan thrown out overnight?

"The UK has been sufficiently consumed with national sovereignty to pull out of the EU – a poster child for democracy compared to the unelected WHO; it would surely be unthinkable now to wave through proposals which would see the UK cede its sovereignty over key national health, social and economic policies to the WHO."

Technocrats want to impose these measures without accountability re LTNs & impositions

Like with ULEZ & Sadiq Khan

But across the UK the public is standing up & challenging together
