They are Public Servants who work for us. It's about time they were reminded as such.
Who the hell do they think they are?
You took the words out of my mouth
Right on point.
They are the people who reap amazing pensions paid for by us instead of the money going into services. Vote Reform
People, all of us, have to, have to, have to start saying more - everyone says their little piece and give their opinion whikst “they” keep getting away with wrecking the country our fathers and grandfathers fought and died for. We all have enough info and evidence to take these criminals to Court to answer for their actions. We should start making citizens arrests. .. starting with Andrew Bailey at the BoE, corrupt Sunak and his wife, Hunt .. the lot of them .. 😡 Do all of us not want to live in a fair, just, peaceful and happy life. Stress is killing the country and beyond.
Time the voters scrapped these Councils.
Totally agree with you
Scrap the councils ?
Who would organise bin removals ?
Take your rubbish to the council and let them deal with it.@@timg1246
You know the avg voter is uninformed and well, dim.
Don't vote. I don't.
Let the civil unrest begin ! 🏴
I second that
Not in this country it won’t, we’re just a nation of moaners n groaners and were people won’t do nothing. Now if the people of this country had the backbone of the French and how they get things sorted, now that would make a difference 🤷🏻♂️
it will kick off soon.
blade runners need to go nationwide
Vote them all out,simple..get the money grabbing labour council out.
...and replace them with another money grabbing political party?? We need independent council members that are held accountable and paid on a performance based wage
Exactly. Local authorities are just corporations there to make money. @@stiggydore4543
Paying money cleans the air ,how ?
Shut up and pay
It disincentivises people from driving in the area within the clean air zone. So people who have alternatives will be encouraged to use them instead.
@@isaacrawlings1651 what if there is no alternative? many cannot afford newer vehicles and public transport may not be suitable for where/when they need to travel, ? if its truely about cleaner air they should give help/more help to people to get compliant vehicles, but no, that costs money, whereas fines brings it in
The fines have been ruled unlawful and have been cancelled. Time for the company to sue Khan.
I can't abide Khan, but why would the company sue him when the subject of this video is Sheffield Council?
Yes. It's unlawful for them to tax boroughs.
This is Sheffield not Greater London
When?! and this is in Sheffield you mong
No, they haven't 😂. The signs without the C charge logo are deemed illegal by a little court judge. All the other signs are legal.
Just dont pay it.
Take them to court, their signs are illegal.
Sue the bastards.
Get them to prove your vehicle is bad.
The video refers to Sheffield, not London.
same thing, Houses of parliament?@@timg1246
@timg1246 same reasoning though
@@alistairmonro No, it really isn't.
We pay extra on our vehicle emissions, so why this? It's got to be one or the other.
Councils around this country have to raise more money from its poor, working taxpayers in order to pay for free hotel rooms for foreign criminals
It's a planned takeover.
Exactly!
Exactly 💯 it's why inflation is going up with all this borrowing to pay for all these ppl! 3.2million & looking at who was the ex chief, it's obvious why so many have past the system over the last couple of years.
Just the labour councils
@@arcadealchemist both
The airs never been cleaner, Sadiq needs sacking, he's destroying people's lives.
That's all part of the plan
@@stequality
I was about to say that myself - it is part of a move to control the West and to destroy all the economies and cultures of the western world, which is another reason why we’re getting a huge influx of everybody from the four corners of the Earth.
Have you ever seen so many Chinese people in English cities now?
He is a little tiny puppet of a 'man' with 'little man syndrome' doing the WEFs bidding.
So I assume the council is using this money to pay for funeral and medical costs due to the air pollution?? Or are they pocketing the money and laughing??
@@theauditor1984
No! Please elaborate, if you will.
@@theauditor1984 Do you mean an outrageously generous pension plan for City of London Councillors?
They are trying to get him on Universal Credit too! They don’t care if he has worries. Just look at the stress they are putting on people . Someone will have to account for the stress they are giving us. Let us all support Carl in Sheffield. I hope nobody is paying these fines.
This is why Sheffield is Dying, and I should know because I live here. 🤬
Today, I've just heard on the radio (and this is the sort of information that is considered as being newsworthy these days, though that is not at all a bad reflection on the city of Sheffield itself) marks the 'anniversary' of the release of the film 'The Full Monty'.
Sheffield was dying THEN. It must be something approaching its death throes by now, and if it isn't, the new ULEZ charges will finish it off.
Don't think that I'm writing this in the sense that I'm poking fun at the demise of what was once a great and important Industrial city:I'm not. But what I will say, knowing that Sheffield is a very strong Labour voting area, is that you reap what you sow;this is what Labour lead councils do for their citizens............ and I'm no (not any more anyway) Tory supporters. Both Sunak and Starmer are out and out TRAITORS as far as I'm concerned, so if you want to save your city, vote the Labour b*****ds out, but don't vote Tory either (not that traditional Labour voters would ever dream of doing that anyway). What is needed is a new party like Reform or Reclaim to smash the totally defunct, stale, way past its sell by date, two party system. Anything else and, if you are aware of the WEF globalist agenda of which both Sunak and Starmer are protagonists, this country and the lives of its people ARE DOOMED.
Can't remember voting for people to make me poorer. Councils are just another arm of the political parties and should be replaced with totaly independent buisness people
And just who would select these 'totally independent' businessmen ?
You ?
@@timg1246 yes, the people that will be paying their performance related wage each month
So, before the next council elections we should all know which councils are even thinking of introducing these new tax zones . Then we can vote appropriately.
They'll do it anyway no matter who. As mandated by the WEF.
I've not know any campaigner follow through with any promises or pledges once their foot is in the door.
The loophole is that the low emissions zone signs don't warn of fine if you dont pay the charge. So they are worthless and to be ignored.
Definitely need ignoring, what can they do, if they take you to court they lose and have to pay the costs. The signs are illegal.
Buses, mini buses and coaches take dozens of people / cars off the roads, it's crazy that they would be charged.
It's not about the environment it's control , restricted use of public transport so u can't travel far plus banning cars all part of the new 15 minutes ghettos
It's all about money and control as per WEF
@@scaryfakevirus A far too nuanced argument for me I'm afraid.
@@davelordy So you don't understand that?
@@scaryfakevirus No, not really, and to be fair I don't expect anyone to type a detailed argument for anything in the comments section, but as it stands it just (fairly or unfairly) sounds like the same "we're being controlled by [insert nefarious organisation]" notions we've heard for decades, they're 10 a penny, and without any actual argument (or even a point) it's just noise.
Don't pay the fines.
It's racketeering
Councils across the countyr are out of control and we need civil action to rein in these dictators.
Don't pay the fines. If everyone did that the courts simply would be inundated with cases and just wouldn't be able to take them on. Do not pay!
Daylight robbery....
This is criminal to make up a charge for pollution,why dont they charge pilots for the chemtrails that are sprayed everyday?
I lost braincells reading this
Councils may feel that they're preventing some pollution by rinsing the working class, but what about their sustainability being forgotten about by sending all those letters?
If the Council doesn't turn up to present their case the tribunal would surely have to find in favour of the appellant as would a CC.
It's all going to plan then. The councils are not bothered. They get business rates whether the business is open or closed.
Or businesses go under or relocate and stop offering services in the city or town except for at exorbitant rates...but people wont be able to afford it so the housing and infrastructure of the cities will decay and people will leave and then there will be no income from businesses and run down ghost towns with no employment??? I think these taxes are a disgrace, they are too high for the small businesses and self employed and those on normal wages, never mind low wages. It's an aggressive tax against the poorest and makes absolutely no difference to the richest who will be privileged to pollute, regardless of whether their activity is a vital service for the people, from care workers to fire service, builders, food transport and supermarket workers...all will be absolutely hammered by this.
Massive taxes on the poor and small businesses. Equality of freedom of movement, including social mobility, only for those who can afford to pay. These councils claim the moral highground while in reality are demonstrably morally bankrupt; either that or they are collectively severely intellectually challenged.
But Sheffield Council cut down all the trees. Trees clean the air.
I used to shop in Sheffield and go to shows won't do it anymore because I don't want a fine to spoil my day it will be a ghost city
When these councils claim “x number of deaths” ask them for scientific studies to prove their claims - and not ones that have been “influenced” by the people that commissioned it and didn’t like the wording of the unbiassed results!
Apparently, one person died as a result of the cumulative effects of polluted air over a number of years... this is where the Emporer Khan came unstuck just recently when he claimed the figure was 4,000... more lies.
Sheffield never seems to be polluted to me.
Even London isn't polluted they are full o shit 😂
Easier said than done. What if you're trying to get a mortgage or something and TFL starts blacklisting you. Do you realise what a knock on effect that will have on you.
What about indoor air pollution. I've been hospitalised due to 'air fresheners' (what a lie they are). Do the clean air figures include these?
Sort the cameras out....its time to NOT accept unlawful rules from councils. SUE the council...these signs are illegal.
As the man said. If these vehicles are polluters they can still go into the clean air zone so the clean air zone is still being driven through by polluting vehicles
The zone disincentives people from driving through it so it reduces the air pollution as their are less cars
@@isaacrawlings1651 really! If you believe that then you are as delusional as Sadiq Khan all this will do is push the prices of goods up in London this causing Londoners more pain on the cost of living. Londoners already have the highest cost of living in the country and when the £300 per day this if there are 4 deliveries in a day then each delivery recipient will have his haulage increase by another £75 per delivery and that gets passed onto the businesses and shops of London as it will because the haulage firms won't just absorb the cost into their business without passing it on to their customers who in turn will pass it onto the end customer for the same reasons as the haulage firms. In other words they can't absorb it in their business so will pass it on this this £300 per day or £75 per delivery address will get divided up into at most 4 deliveries per day effectively splitting the cost between the 4 businesses who will pass that on to their customers plus the extra profit margin added which will make the cost of living to normal Londoners rise by a substantial amount when the admin and profit is added on the price to the end customer
Stop voting for the Far Left Labour party.
I’d make them produce the statistics for all these deaths caused by emissions, never seen one in the news
Got to pay for the dingy divers somehow (sarcasm btw)
Elcocks of Telford and green bus service of Birmingham as been shut down because of clean zone fees ,it's a council cash cow
The whole point of busses and coaches is that they cary more people than cars. Why are they charging these forms of transport when the whole point of these schemes (supposedly) is to get people out of cars and into other forms of transport, like busses? Nuts.
Ignore the fines.
If people do that the fines shoot up. That is very bad advice.
Actually those signs don't appear to contain sufficient information to be lawful, so the chap can use the recent unlawful lez signage tribunal ruling as persuasive in his defence as may anyone else who is fined by sheffield
I would ask for prison time instead of paying id refuse to pay. And they want to cripple business all part of the plan.
Who exactly are all these thousands of people dying from traffic pollution ? This will simply kill our economy as no business can afford this nonsense.
1) how can Medical Professionals say people are dying "prematurely?
2) Unborn babies suffer too?
Tribunal ruled yesterday the fines are illegal because the signs are illegal 🤣
It's about putting people out of business.
Why are you even talking about it. You should be stopping these nitwits.
Amazon is laughing with the back tooth. The death of the highstreet.
Where’s the evidence for the ludicrous claim about premature deaths?
MORE TO COME!
According to the TFL website
Approach 3: Low levels emission charge - Late 2023
A low-level daily charge applied to ALL ICE vehicles driving anywhere in London to act as a ‘nudge’ to change behaviour.
Approach 4: Next generation charging - 2025/26
A new charging mechanism based on distance (e.g. km or miles) and other factors which could integrate existing/proposed schemes (including environmental RUC schemes) in a single simple fair way.
What @ crap hole this Country is now no wonder loads of people are leaving the UK.
Lorries trademan will end up having to raise prices those who support the clean air zone better get ready to pay more for their goods.
Refuse to pay, get them in court! Expose and shame!
Tax on the poorest
If they were really bothered about the effect on health of people and unborn babies they would fine any business that sells cigarettes and tobacco.
These council's don't care a damn
There was none of this when you couldn't see a hand in front of your face for the smog in London in the middle of the last centaury
Meanwhile biggest polluters on the planet China Indea, America biggest 🤬polluters on the planet what are they doing? How about councils spending the cash they are stealing from this, and build park and rides just outside for shoppers and commuters to offset pollution
The post-truth era, for sure.
I would go up to the council who say all these figures and ask where they got them from and did they pay eight hundred thousand pounds for them and then ask if they could change there response because it did not read exactly what they expected...
Take the cameras down 👈
paintball guns are good i hear
Don't live in Sheffield but know how they feel same boat myself with Khan's ulez.
Complete bollocks
where is the evidence of these deaths from air pollution.
ULEZ crime of the century
It's won't create cleaner air as those vehicles are stil going into that zone, it's money for the councils as most of them are in debt do to covid lock down
Crazy...
What a mess
Cars, Vans and Lorries already pay emissions tax (VED), why are motorists having to pay again to enter cities and towns?, if it's going to continue scrap VED
Sheffield City Council is telling porkies!
Are they. Or os he ?
He suggested they did not turn up at the tribunal. If that happened, either he would get a default win or a new date.
As a Company owner we will now not do any work inside of the M25 … LONDANASTAN can cope on its own ….
Just don't pay the fines.
Get up Stand up Don't give up The Fight! Do Not Comply! Do Not Give In!
It seems today if the public compliant to one scam well, lets try another! were now being led back the serfdom of days gone by. Thank goodness im out of the working loop with all the pitfalls of loosing your wages trying to earn one!
Sue the council for malicious prosecution. Have them declared a Vexatious Litigant.
All councils exposing any Lez charges need to go
These councillors need removing.
The Council says Pollution kills but not the stress this is causing the lad in this report. Can they just get their heads out of the clouds...please?
A UK court decided that all ULEZ fines are illegal and must be returned.
The clean air scam.
I fking hate clean air! I want my children to get asthma and other lung conditions, toughen them up a bit
@@geoffdavids7647 Get them on the tube then.
as if they dont get enough cash from council tax!!!!!
Dont pay it. It will crumble.
Paying the money doesn't make the air any cleaner - CORRECT
Its unlawful whats being done. Hasnt been thought through becausr money collected through fines is the only thought. Get this little man out. Vote, vote vote!
Khan doesn't pay!! Unbelievable
Vote them out .
Labour council, enough said 🤷🏻♂️
It's a pity gb news we're not this concerned about british businesses going bust because of brexit!
Maybe and here's a guess because GBNews wasn't on air when brexit happened? Brexit happen Jan 31st 2020 and GBNews first aired June 13th 2021 over a year and a half later.
@kevinpike4459 It hasn't stopped them since, though, has it? Belittling any attempt to point out what a disaster it has been for many uk businesses! But that's maybe down to its owners being non dom tax dodging hedge fund managers. And they have managed to convince ordinary uk people to vote against their own interests. Impressive really.
the sheffield clean air zone is within the inner ring road,problem is it includes the inner ring road which makes avoiding it very difficult,at least the birmigham clean air zone doesnt include driving on the inner ring road
It's all by design.
What I did notice from the signs alone despite this being in Sheffield was that there was a section stating that charges apply.....The Ulez signs in London do not have this section making it unlawful.....
This is not minibus company. It is a hotel.
It’s a shame that everyone all over the country does not stand at a bus stop waiting for a bus that never comes and watch how many work places go out of business then the government can’t support everyone as they can’t find work that they can get to
Commercial vehicles should be exempt.
Maybe time to invest in more modern Euro 6 buses
Euro 6 buses for which there will be a significant outlay and which will deteriorate in price as soon as you drive them off the forecourt, just like any other vehicle, how is that an investment?
the big thing is, as he said, charging /fining people is not going to magically clean the air, people need to get to and from where they need to, and cannot afford to get new 'compliant' vehicles ..it is just a money grab
Getting closer to a PKD dystopia, what next coin slots on your home doors 😅
More places should introduce Ulez, I'm fed up of breathing in dirty vehicle fumes as I ride around on my mobility scooter.
That is disgraceful
Children's health, just say prove it! Because the council can't
Then don't pollute the cities
Why in 2023 do we in Britain still practise representative democracy anyway? Is it not about time we began to follow Switzerlands model and start moving towards direct democracy where citizens actually show an interest and are involved in decision making? If citizens of Greater London had a say in the build up to the ULEZ expansion, and had shown an interest, perhaps they would now not have a peasant tax to pay, or at least, it might be a more sensible and affordable tax. £12.50 per day is simply extortion. £400 per day for large lorries as well.
