Sadiq Khan’s decision to expand Ulez found to be ‘within his powers’. Five Tory councils vow to continue the fight against “tax on living in outer London”. How many people actually support the expansion? Why the Mayor’s plan does have its flaws. Our City Hall Editor Ross Lydall discusses the big win for Sadiq Khan, and what people really think about the expansion. In this episode:

• Why the ruling was a ‘comprehensive victory’ for Mr Khan
• What the latest polls show about public opinion on the Ulez expansion
• Why there’s an ‘almost 0% chance’ Sadiq will change the Ulez plan
• What precedent this ruling sets for councils and eco-measures
• The TfL research that shows Ulez expansion may not be the best way to cut air pollution
• Can the outer London councils still fight the expansion plans?
