00:01Conservative mayoral hopeful James Cleverley says he would review charges imposed by City Hall,
00:07including the ultra-low emissions zone, if elected in 2028. Cleverley says his priority
00:13would be reducing cost of living for Londoners, and he describes City Hall charges as backdoor
00:18taxes. He's not committed to keeping, changing or removing any charge. The ULES was expanded
00:26across London boroughs in 2023. City Hall says 96.7% of vehicles seen driving in London meet its
00:34emissions standards, while the scheme has helped cut pollution. Cleverley says motorists and businesses
00:41can face pressure.
