    The “evidence” is clearly that the Green Agenda isn’t at the top of Labour’s plans. I heard Starmer on LBC last week refusing to defend ULEZ and Sadiq Khan. I heard Starmer also telling young environmentalists in Gillingham when challenged about which side of the climate debate he was on, saying “the side of economic growth.” Two weeks ago, Starmer decided to u-turn on the Green Plan Labour had been developing.

    What more evidence do you need?

    If we do face an existential crisis then it means actually doing radical stuff. Postponing things until Rupert Murdoch or one of the other oligarchs tell us it’s ok, isn’t an option.

      Dont forget that Khan has green lit the Silvertown tunnel, which will have massive negative environmental impact on the east of London

        Kind of, but right now all that traffic is pushed though the Blackwell tunnel, Woolwich or Dartford so if anything it’s spreading it out a bit compared to now. That said, anyone using it will have to be ULEZ compliant now anyway.
