The ulez scandal: What went wrong?
A FOI request by the Yorkshire Evening Post newspaper showed that Leeds City Council were planning to introduce a CAZ 3 years ago in January 2020 but scrapped it after taking legal advice. They said they had no legal authority to proceed with it due to the fact that the nitrogen dioxide levels had dropped so much. This was largely due to the amount of vehicles which were now compliant. Hmmmm , curious eh. They did however keep a lot of the Gov cash and install the ANPR cameras.
Here is the link to the article from the YEP from Feb 2022.

And here is an article from Yorkshire Live in Feb 2023. It includes a 40 minute podcast with MP Nick Fletcher who serves the Don Valley in Yorkshire. He discusses his opposition to 15 minute cities. It also includes his speech to parliament again in Feb 2023.
Yorkshire Tory MP slams '15 minute cities' as 'socialist' plot
PDF results of a survey conducted in Oct 2022 for 20 minute open prisons , sorry neighborhoods on behalf of Leeds City Council by Mott MacDonald.
It is extremely comprehensive and follows the same blueprint we have seen for this all over the world. It also includes a very long list of comments from people who took part in it.
