As anger mounts over Sadiq Khan\u2019s Ultra Low Emissions Scheme (ULEZ), one man has brazenly claimed to have dumped more than 100 enforcement cameras in a pond.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile the London Mayor has revealed the shocking levels of abuse he has been subjected to since the scheme was rolled out across the Capital in the summer – including being sent a bullet in the post.<\/p>\n
In accordance with the scheme, which applies in all 32 London boroughs, all vehicles failing to comply with emissions standards are required to pay a daily charge of \u00a312.50.<\/p>\n
Mr Khan argues the scheme will cut pollution – but critics have branded it a stealth tax on motorists.<\/p>\n
One of them, speaking during an anti-ULEZ demonstration in Biggin Hill in south London, claimed to be a scrap metal dealer who gets \u201ceight phone calls a day to collect ULEZ cameras for scrap metal\u2026from the people that have cut them down\u201d.<\/p>\n

I benefit.\u201d<\/p>\n He had got rid of 100 cameras in this way, he boasted.<\/p>\n Mr Khan himself also offered an insight into his reasons for approving the scheme in the first place – as well as the stress he has been under ever since.<\/p>\n Don’t miss… <\/strong> <\/p>\n
