Petition Amend the 1999 GLA Act to remove the Mayor's power to impose road use charges
The Mayor's proposed extension of ULEZ over a short timeframe could negatively impact millions of people and businesses across SE England.
More details
We believe the powers granted under the Greater London Authority Act 1999 are far too great for a Mayor to wield.
The ULEZ expansion could cause harm to millions of people’s lives, work and businesses.
We believe that:
- the short timeframe for expanding the ULEZ has not allowed enough time for people to avoid this charge.
- there is no adequate democratic accountability as the measure affects millions who have no vote in London Mayoral Elections
- turnout at local elections is too low to provide democratic accountability.
The country's roads should be available without favour to all users of lawfully licensed vehicles.
