Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ)
ULEZ and politics go together like a cyclist and a pothole—one’s always making the other’s life miserable.

One day, they’re promising cleaner air, and the next, they’re charging you for breathing it. Meanwhile, the same politicians happily take motorcades to climate summits while telling you to ditch your car for a bicycle—because nothing says "leading by example" like a convoy of gas-guzzlers enforcing a green agenda.
