A huge win for citizens! When 3000 deaths are being attributed to air pollution it takes a brave politician with radical ideas to fix it. Well done @MayorofLondon for saying #ilikecleanair Ulez: London mayor hails court's 'landmark' expansion ruling bbc.co.uk/news/uk-66327961

You can use this quick tool to support #CleanAir and let TfL know the Ultra Low Emission Zone should cover all of London. A bigger ULEZ will reduce health inequities across the capital. Survey closes on 29th July 👇. #WeLoveULEZ #AirPollution action.wearepossible.org/pag…

Good morning @pow_rebecca. In 2019 @michaelgove pledged to adopt @WHO #AirPollution targets. Will you deliver on this promise by including these in the #EnvironmentBill? Our children have been breathing toxic air for too long. #VoteCleanAir bbc.in/3ivuI1J

‘Lines of cones & signs’ are low cost options that City Hall is taking to increase cycling capacity for fear of backlash by motorists. Is that the best we can do? Londoners will bike if it’s safe. Give us roads & take cars away. #SadiqKhan #londonmustlead bbc.com/news/uk-england-lond…
