Only thing left to pay will there be a charge for wood burning stoves?
Why the charges are only in central London when people don’t sleep at night for bad air?
If you answer don’t know then keep paying $$$£££……
Drivers of older, more polluting vehicles now have to pay almost twice as much to drive in central London.
Mayor Sadiq Khan's £10 T-Charge, which mainly applies to diesel and petrol vehicles registered before 2006, has come into force.
It covers the same area as the existing congestion charge zone, bumping up the cost to £21.50 for those affected.
Opponents said the scheme would "disproportionately penalise London's poorest drivers".
The measure is the latest attempt by Mr Khan to improve air quality in the capital and, according to the mayor's office, will affect 34,000 motorists a month.

How bad is air pollution in the UK?
From Monday 23 October, there is a £10 daily fee for those who drive more polluting vehicles in the congestion charging zone, on top of the existing £11.50 congestion charge.
Vehicles that do not comply with the Euro IV exhaust standard must pay the £10 charge.
The standard defines emissions limits for cars, vans, buses, coaches and lorries. Most vehicles registered before 2006 are likely to exceed these limits.
The zone will operate between 07:00 and 18:00, Monday to Friday.
Speaking on the Today programme, Mr Khan said: "We've got a health crisis in London caused by the poor quality air.

Over the years, ppl with older cars will end up spending the same amount as ppl with newer cases... basically, manipulating ppl to buy newer cars in a way
i also wonder how they will enforce this btw, track car usage
I wonder if all the buses will pay it as well. Sounds like an FOI request will be getting lodged in about a month to ask.
My master plan is to live forever..... going to plan so far
Despite the cost of living, it's still very popular.
No good deed goes unpunished....
But it's not like they can track usage LOLOL
I think its the Norwegians have already come up with an idea to tax electric cars......You see all those batteries make then heavier on the road
Yep Electric cars over two tons in weight will wear the road out fast so we must tax them also the rich people found they can avoid the congestion in their big limos (Hybrid) they clog up the bus lanes etc. Tax Tax more Tax
