Since ULEZ.

Remember all the ridiculous fuss?

Children’s lungs which had been stunted by the pollution, have radically improved, correlating strongly with the drop in nitrogen dioxide.

Khan’s stance has been more than vindicated.

I thought this was great news. Reports also mentioned the fact that part of the improvement was due to the Covid restrictions.

I’ve been saying for at least 30 years that lots of asthma in children is caused by car/lorry fumes . I think I might be right 🤣
