Ultra Low Emission Zones (ULEZ) charge drivers of older, more polluting vehicles a daily fee (often £12.50) to enter designated city areas. Initially introduced in central London, the recent expansion to outer boroughs sparked fierce political blowback, vigilante attacks on 'ANPR' cameras by groups calling themselves 'Blade Runners', and a national debate over environmental policy versus economic reality. Proponents argue that bold action is scientifically necessary to prevent thousands of premature deaths linked to toxic nitrogen dioxide (NO2) air pollution. Opponents argue it is a punitive 'war on motorists' that unfairly taxes the working class who rely on older vans and cars for their daily survival.
