Any London members taking up Khan's scrappage offer?

My 1983 two stroke Yamaha is ULEZ compliant, so is my 1982 Kawasaki, and my 2008 Mitsubishi, and my 2020 Suzuki, but my 1990 Yamaha isn't, my wife's 2007 VW also isn't, not that I care as I don't want to go to Chelsea.

Elvis, is that you?

Well done on sporting the obvious song reference, honestly it's like the 80s never happened in here.

If you can remember the 80s you weren't there. Man.

[KungFooBob]

I was two in 1980.

I remember 1984. On the news the police were beating up some unwashed looking types that the media referred to as miners.

It was acceptable in the 80s, it was acceptable at the time.

That was also around the time the printers unions were throwing bricks at horses and smashing up busses carrying the general public.

That's a Viennetta, which is better than a Viennese Swirl, I doubt if either of them have anything to do with Vienna

Danish pastries do though, the Danes acknowledge to true inventors, according to an internet meme I saw. So it must be true.

From Wikipedia

"In Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish, the term for Danish pastry is wienerbrød (or wienerbröd), meaning "Viennese bread"."

So Danish Pastries are from Vienna?

But the following sentence says " In Vienna, the Danish pastry is called Kopenhagener Plunder, referring to Copenhagen, or Dänischer Plunder."

So they're from Denmark?

Yes. And big in Japan.

Yes. And big in Japan.

No, that's Alphaville, they were German, lead singer was Marian

He died, but the diddymen are up for it

We all knew you'd be funny eventually.

So it turns out that a scientific report stated that ULEZ will have no impact at all on air quality, then the Mayor's office contacted the scientist to attempt to manipulate them into changing the report.

Seriously is this really going on in 2023? WTF?!

Not that I give a toss about Khan, or ulez, or London ffs, but by all accounts none of these Imperial College 'reports' are peer reviewed so they're no better than educated opinion
Amusing that (a) the slant and emphasis of conclusion can be so easily altered, and still rely upon the same data (b) that they can be so readily persuaded to do it

My brother-in-law has COPD, it's his own fault for smoking, he's given up long ago but hey ho. Anyway, during lockdown his COPD got better, not a little bit, it vanished. As soon as the traffic was back so was the COPD. He lives in Dulwich. There are many similar stories of people with respiratory problems getting better in lockdown, ulez can't happen fast enough in my opinion.

Well Khan says 9 out of 10 cars are compliant anyway, so nothing will change at all in regards to your brother in laws health. ULEZ doesn't stop anything, it just puts a £12.50 charge to carry on for those who aren't compliant. So again, ULEZ makes no difference.

During lock down, ULEZ compliant cars weren't being driven, after lock down, they are.
