Default Higher congestion charge for thirsty cars

Reported last night that Ken proposes to charge £25 a day for the most
polluting cars.

Is he now acknowledging the folly of extending the zone instead of
creating a separate zone for the western extension?

If zone inhabitants pay 10%, the £2.50 a day charge might be a slight
incentive for them to use lighter vehicles.

a mile than cycling it.
So why aren't we all exhorted to wear walking helmets?
