What’s the collective noun for a group of mayors? ‘A magnificence of mayors’, is apparently the answer, well, our ‘magnificent’ Sadiq is hosting a conference next week with ‘mayors from around the world’ for the inaugural Partnership for Healthy Cities Summit. They will be discussing strategies to combat noncommunicable diseases and injuries. Top of Khan’s list is fighting the ‘toxic air’ that causes ‘asthma and stunted lung growth in the young and dementia in the elderly’, and no doubt burnishing his success at getting 160,000 of London’s cars scrapped at a stroke.

I recently changed my car to a 2018 Dacia Duster. My old 2007 Zafira Diesel was a definite ULEZ target, but it appears that my Petrol-powered 4WD Romanian/French SUV is okay. I checked on the site, and it is exempt. Almost worth the 280 mile round trip to drive around inside the M25! (Not really…)
What does Khan say about the carbon footrpint of the international travel necessary for his conference, I wonder?
Cheers, Pete.

My daughter’s Ford fiesta is ok, even though its falling apart, but has had to sell her nearly new Citroën diesel. Let’s hope Khan’s bullet-proof convoy is carbon neutral.
