Speech. Policed.
Cameras. Policed.
Criminals. Released, not prosecuted, not jailed, not bailed.
Carbon is the reason for totalitarianism. STAND.
Movement restriction tax is a consumptive intervention. I see them everywhere. the cameras cordon us off. While polite Canadians will blithely walk underneath or within, I predict it will be the immigrants who fled totalitarianism who will not stand for it and become blade runners. Who knows. Maybe freedom loving bladerunners are already in Canada and the US. Some blade runners may already be reading my stack. I am definitely NOT Not endorsing in any double negative double speak do not not become any blade runner. not.
also not endorsing this at all.
Don’t do it.
Not.
Here is the transcript. Just incredible. We are fighting each other while the net is trying to scoop our movement, choices, and speech.
now over in the UK the ultra low
0:02
emission Zone scheme has been expanded
0:05
to greater London but the British people
0:08
are protesting against it and anti-ulles
0:11
vigilante group known as the Blade
0:13
Runners has committed itself to removing
0:16
or disabling every last ula's camera in
0:21
London May City Khan is learning that if
0:24
you tax the poor this is what you get
0:39
this is what one man can do to the
0:43
Euless in less than half a day
0:47
we're not of course endorsing any of
0:49
that we wouldn't take that off but
0:50
joining us now from London is writer and
0:53
broadcaster it's the cracker Esther
0:56
thank you so much for your timer tell me
0:59
about how many of these cameras have
1:02
been damaged or disabled is the scheme
1:06
doomed
1:08
at the scheme I wish it was doomed um
1:12
unfortunately I happen to live in a
1:13
boundary town where these Euless cameras
1:16
have been going up so I I can actually
1:18
say I'm personally outraged by this but
1:21
the last time I checked about a quarter
1:23
of all the cameras have been destroyed
1:25
or vandalized and extra police resources
1:28
have needed to be uh mobilized to
1:30
actually stop these people from what
1:32
they're doing
1:33
um and I must admit these um police
1:35
officers are going around in Vans which
1:36
is not exactly environmentally friendly
1:38
so it sounds like he kind of shot
1:40
himself in the foot there
1:41
um but the reality is the reason why
1:43
people are so instanced by this Euless
1:45
expansion is for two main reasons one
1:48
you know the the data around it actually
1:50
improving air quality in London is very
1:53
very low it's very dodgy
1:55
um and it's highly contested and the
1:58
reality is you know when you when when a
2:00
car in the UK um passes its mot there is
2:03
an emissions test as part of the mot
2:04
test as well and if it fails that it's
2:06
not allowed to be on the road it's not
2:07
roadworthy um so most people don't
2:10
understand why we already have that as
2:11
sort of legislation in place and Sadiq
2:13
Khan is now you know making it more
2:15
difficult for people for murderers to
2:16
get around London by implementing this
2:18
this U.S policy which actually would
2:20
have been would be effectively useless
2:23
in two years anyway because the
2:24
emissions um sort of requirements are
2:26
updated will be updated in two years
2:28
another reason why people are also in
2:30
census the fact that this Euler scheme
2:32
is estimated to draw one billion pounds
2:34
into a city Khan's coffers and
2:37
effectively plug the hole in in London's
2:38
you know ever growing debt and so most
2:41
people just don't understand why this is
2:42
necessary other than to effectively
2:44
impoverish people that are already
2:45
struggling to get by
2:47
um so the people that are effectively
2:49
vandalizing these U.S cameras are very
2:51
incense and they're very serious and
2:52
even people that aren't are still
2:53
outraged by this policy well Esther you
2:56
know it is amazing to me to hear you say
2:58
that the police are spending their
2:59
resources trying to defend these cameras
3:02
when they can't you know catch a burglar
3:04
and they can't prosecute people from
3:06
Mayhem at the Notting Hill Carnival but
3:09
I'll put it to you that really the true
3:11
point of this Ole Escape seems to be
3:13
less about saving the planet or saving
3:15
the air quality in London which we know
3:17
historically has always been a bit of a
3:19
thing but rather about you know this is
3:22
essentially a tax on people who don't
3:24
have enough money or class to drive an
3:27
expensive electric vehicle from moving
3:30
from point A to point B easily this is a
3:33
movement restriction tax on the people
3:35
and that I think is why people are
3:37
rebelling is that correct
3:41
absolutely any have to remember the most
3:42
vulnerable people
3:44
um that will be hit by this U.S policy
3:45
you know you can have an old woman
3:47
trying to go to church in sort of a
3:48
neighboring Town that's going to be hit
3:50
by a 12 pound 50 a day fine or women
3:53
that are traveling at night or families
3:54
that need to get by there are very many
3:56
people that are going to be negatively
3:58
affected by this Euless expansion and
4:01
the reality is you know sadiq's corner
4:03
city Khan's excuse that this is going to
4:05
improve air quality the data actually is
4:07
very limited he paid Imperial College
4:09
800 000 pounds over two years to come up
4:11
with to to come up with data to prove
4:13
that this would have to be effective and
4:15
when they didn't his office had the
4:17
audacity to send an email saying they
4:18
were disappointed by the findings
4:20
Because the actual benefits of this
4:22
Euless expansion would be negligible and
4:24
we only discovered this because of the
4:25
Freedom of Information Act request that
4:27
was put in so Sadiq Khan has really
4:29
failed the working class of London by
4:32
implementing this Euler scheme and it's
4:34
going to be completely ineffective and
4:36
and the sad thing is you know even
4:37
though this was contested in the high
4:38
court he was still allowed to to expand
4:41
and it's very it's very disappointing
4:44
it's the uh Sadiq Khan said that without
4:46
this low emission Zone he said thousands
4:49
of people will die prematurely yes you
4:52
mentioned the foi request where the
4:54
government uh informed the public that
4:56
in the past 20 years they know of one
4:58
person who's died from air pollution and
5:01
they couldn't be sure whether car
5:02
emissions actually contributed to that
5:04
meanwhile as James Morrow my associate
5:07
said you've got more than 12 000 knife
5:09
attacks in the past 12 months in London
5:11
how Sadiq Khan maintaining public
5:14
support when his priorities are so
5:16
obviously off
5:18
well the reality is he's not maintaining
5:21
public support
5:22
um and you're right you know he he
5:23
there's one particular young girl that
5:25
he keeps trotting out saying this this
5:27
particular young girl died from air
5:28
pollution and that's the reason why he
5:30
must put this tax on the poor um but
5:32
again the research that he's using to
5:34
back this up is very flimsy and that's
5:36
what it hasn't sent so many people the
5:38
reality is Sadiq Khan's popularity has
5:41
tanked so much he effectively cost the
5:43
labor party a win in in a by-election
5:46
that they should have won quite
5:47
comfortably in Boris Johnson's old seat
5:48
of Oxbridge
5:50
um but because of this Euless expansion
5:51
he effectively lost them the seat and
5:53
more people are seeing that if labor
5:55
come into power this is the kind of
5:57
policies that they will be trying to
5:58
enact on people trying to impoverish
6:00
them by making them you know pay all
6:03
sorts of green taxes what he has said is
6:05
that he has uh championed the scheme to
6:07
give families or people that whose cars
6:09
don't meet their missions within the new
6:11
less Zone 2 000 pounds to try and buy a
6:13
new car to which I ask do you expect
6:15
people to get a quad bike with a roof
6:17
what exactly is two thousand pounds per
6:18
to buy someone and the reality is cars
6:21
are very expensive these days the reason
6:22
why people haven't bought new cars is
6:24
because of the cost of living crisis to
6:25
tell them that they can get a 2 000
6:27
pound Grant I I really suspect that he
6:29
expects them to be to be driving you
6:31
know a unicycle or something I I don't
6:34
understand
6:35
I think we should all be applauding City
6:38
Khan it could be the Tories Only Hope
6:40
remaining in power so thank you Sadiq
