A pensioner from Essex is facing having to pay £150 a year to visit his parents' graves in the zone.

Stuart Woodroffe, 69, from Coggeshall, near Colchester, makes monthly visits to the cemetery inside the ULEZ zone where his parents Betty and Jack are buried.

"Businesses trading with London are going to have to pay the costs, they are going to have to absorb the costs and possibly reduce what they pay staff," he said. "We have staff [that live in the zone] who cannot afford to upgrade their vehicles. There's a good chance of us losing three or four staff who have been with us for years."Image caption,Jon Fuller, of south east Essex Friends of the Earth and lives in Southend, said ULEZ was vital in the fight for cleaner air.

The BBC is a disgrace, today they accused those at the Trafalgar Square Ulez Protest as being Conspiracy Theorists and Far Right. Would someone at the BBC explain how they came to this conclusion? This is the same rubbish Khan came out with. I will not pay my license herein.

If fewer people, including children, dying from asthma is not a win to you, YOU are the disgrace!

Khan doesn’t care about the Poor or the Worker just his Champagne socialist voters

🤔…

Not just Essex every outer London borough and surrounding kent boroughs

Should move the British capital out of London now

Ouh moi fahkin gohd, Tracy!

It's always painful at the start, look at the first congestion charge. People hated it and then they just paid. No doubt, it will help clean the air over a wider area. Asthma rates are extremely high in some boroughs.

Shut London and send them home.

The mayor is happy for you to pollute as long as you pay £12.50 a day, this will then pay his failure fund of TfL

Doubtful

Labour ,the party of the people and their money lol

Tough cookies.

Never understood this emissions rubbish someone could have a really good car on co2 but drive 50k a year and pay less than someone who does 5k miles a year

Not too worry we need less vans and cars on the who cares if it trashed the economy

How old is the pensioners car? A complainer on LBC was crying he'd lose customers but turned out his van was compliant when I looked into it.

In case you missed it or wasn’t told 🤔

Cheap efficient second hand petrol cars exist.. they pay nothing... Its there to persaude people running a car that is inefficient, and 17 years old or more to update it...

That's the point of the ULEZ.

It just a tax along with Ltn zones

This will destroy business’s not good at all for the business sector!

He doesn’t give a shit

It’s just another tax grab. The money will be syphoned off to pay for illegal immigrants accommodation

Kill off all small businesses and let big Blue chip take over everything! The Elitist are getting stronger with even more power ToryCostOfGreedCrisis

How does paying £12.50 clean the air?

The Politicians and their policies have no power if no one obeys. The people give the Politicians the power.

I'm payin $ 5,205 💚for the first 15 People to DM 'BLESSED'God bless y' all🕊️💜🫶🏾

This is nonsense, more Tory bullshit look at requirements petrol and diesel cars.

That’s the plan no traffic on the roads only the elite will have transport. Delivery services boom. Climate change scam

I think this is a stupid scheme makes no sense at all!

Well they voted for him. NeverLabour
