ANDREW PIERCE: The unravelling of Rachel Reeves over London mayor Sadiq Khan's ULEZ stealth tax

Daily Mail  

As shadow chancellor, Rachel Reeves has been on a charm offensive in the City to try to reassure the markets that the economy will be safe in Labour's hands. But, by her own account, she hasn't a clue about one of Labour's most straightforward stealth taxes — the £12.50 daily charge being introduced by London Mayor Sadiq Khan. The expansion of ULEZ is likely to affect an additional 1.5 million motorists who drive into London, as well as 700,000 already living in the capital, because their cars are considered too old and polluting. Britain's Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer Rachel Reeves has been on a charm offensive in the City, says Andrew Pierce Sadiq Khan's expansion of ULEZ is likely to affect an additional 1.5 million motorists who drive into London 'I am a Leeds MP and we don't have that up here and don't have these congestion charges in the city that I represent.
