Should the government have the power to overrule the London mayor?
Former Cabinet minister launches bill to allow ministers to intervene over proposed ULEZ expansion
Former Cabinet minister Theresa Villiers urged MPs to back her law change, which would allow ministers to intervene on decisions about transport and air quality. Ms Villiers, who represents Chipping Barnet in outer north London, told the Commons: "In my 18 years as an MP... almost nothing has provoked such strong opposition as the mayor of London's plan to expand the ULEZ.
"That is why I am bringing forward this Bill to give the Government power to overrule Mayor Khan and stop ULEZ expansion."
