Sadiq Khan has launched a fresh war on drivers, warning repeat ULEZ fine dodgers will be made bankrupt as a new clampdown is launched.

The Mayor of London's Ultra Low Emission Zone has proven highly controversial since its introduction in 2019 to help cut pollution in the capital.

It sees any drivers across Greater London with vehicles not compliant with European pollution standards slapped with a daily £12.50 charge for travelling through it.

Transport for London (TfL), which the mayor chairs, has now said it will toughen up on a 'specific group of drivers' with long-running ULEZ debts.

The transport authority - led by the Labour politician, who has sat in City Hall for eight years - pledged to open 'bankruptcy proceedings' against these elusive road users 'in extreme cases'.
