Headline: Locals of Havering Council protest outside Town Hall demanding halt to ULEZ extension

Residents of Romford, Hornchurch, and other local areas protested outside Havering Town Hall, delivering a 3,000 signed petition to demand a halt to the Ultra Low Emissions Zone (ULEZ) extension to the Havering authority. The proposal, which was put forward by Mayor of London Sadiq Khan, has drawn criticism from locals who fear it will impact their daily lives and businesses negatively.

Protesters became angry when they were informed that the petition had been ignored and not properly addressed in the council chamber. They then entered the building, arguing with council workers and elected officials. The heated exchange lasted for several hours, with protesters demanding to be heard and council members struggling to maintain order.

The protesters argue that the ULEZ extension will lead to increased costs for motorists and businesses, with little to no benefits in terms of air quality. They have called for more consultation and transparency on the issue and are urging the council to take their concerns seriously. The council, on the other hand, maintains that the ULEZ extension is necessary to meet air quality targets and reduce pollution levels in the area.
