Sadiq Khan is right this moment battling allegations he plans on persevering with his struggle in opposition to the motorist, this time by introducing a scheme to make drivers pay-per-mile in London.

This morning it was reported ULEZ is “just the start” of Labour’s plan to create a carless society, as Mr Mayor has known as for a military of consultants to construct a “sophisticated” new pricing system for London’s roads.

The scheme would use Mr Khan’s ULEZ cameras and will imply drivers wracking up big prices relying on the size of their journey, the congestion stage of the roads and the quantity of air pollution their automobile emitted.

A supply informed the Mail on Sunday: “It is an open secret in City Hall that it is being worked on”.

Despite proof on the contrary, this morning Sadiq Khan issued a blunt denial.

Taking to Twitter, he stated: “This is nonsense. Let me be crystal clear - a pay per mile scheme is not on the table and not on my agenda.”

London Tories have claimed Mr Khan points the very same denials about introducing a ULEZ enlargement, just for him to U-turn and do precisely that.

London Assembly Member Peter Fortune stated that in May 2021 he requested the Mayor immediately: “"Do you have any plans to extend the Ultra-Low Emission Zone to the Outer London boundary, and if so, when would this be likely to happen?”

Mr Khan replied in July that year: "I've no plans to increase the ULEZ to outer London”.

For good measure, the Mayor added such a coverage wouldn't be efficient in tackling air high quality.

“Air quality on the remaining roads will be more effectively addressed through targeted, local measures. I believe that this strikes the right balance to deliver the biggest air quality improvements as quickly as possible.”

This afternoon, Tory Mayoral candidate Susan Hall informed the Express that Sadiq Khan is as soon as once more repeating his denials regardless of plans to do the other.

Ms Hall stated: “Sadiq Khan pretended ULEZ expansion was not on the agenda, until it was. Now he is doing the same for his plans to charge motorists for every mile they drive, which TfL has openly admitted it is working on.

“As Mayor, I will stop all development on Sadiq Khan's pay per mile scheme.”

Last night time, Transport Secretary Mark Harper wrote to Sadiq Khan warning that the Government will again an modification within the forthcoming Levelling Up Bill that might guarantee councillors can block future Labour plans to make use of air air pollution as an “attempt to justify” prices on drivers.

The London ULEZ will develop to cowl the entire of Greater London on Tuesday, after various Tory councils failed of their efforts to get the courts to dam the transfer.

Sadiq Khan has declared Tuesday a “landmark day”.
