How can I campaign against the ban of non-EU4 diesel engines in London, which will affect camper van drivers like myself?
On reading your page on 1 May, I was shocked to read the item headed "Mourning campers" because I was totally unaware of the forthcoming ban on non-EU4 diesel engines within the LEZ, which drastically affects me. I feel so strongly about this that I have written to the Mayor of London and have also sent a copy to the Editor of the Camping and Caravanning Club, of which I am a member. I wonder whether you have any other feedback, and perhaps a group of those affected could get together (perhaps with a petition). I am very happy for you to pass on a copy of my letter to any interested party with my e-mail address of rbowen22@hotmail.com and telephone 01895673306.

This was announced about three years ago during Ken Livingstone's tenure. It's very late to start campaigning. The information is here: www.tfl.gov.uk/roadusers/lez/17678.aspx
