Absolutely delighted with Zoë Garbett & The Green Party 10/10 for our manifesto.
Clean Air isn't just an environmental issue. It disproportionately hits working class communities & communities of colour. It's an issue of social justice.
We await the other parties manifestos...

1⃣ Value clean air as an asset.
~1.2 billion workdays are lost globally each year due to air pollution, as per OECD ➡️ Better Policies for Better Lives!
Clean air is an asset that can improve health and productivity, and drive new models of economic growth.

#LondonVotes
Thanks to ITV London News for giving me the chance to make it clear the Tories roadsides signage & parking tickets are their own invention: Sadiq Khan has ruled out #PayPerMile if re-elected for another term #VoteLabour2ndMay
Sadiq Khan has turned London into the slowest city globally. His ULEZ expansion, blanket 20mph zones and low traffic neighbourhoods have brought London to a standstill.
As Mayor I will get this sorted, starting with scrapping his ULEZ expansion on day 1.
