- Against the wishes of residents BANES Council enacted a CAZ in the city, promising it would only apply to vans, they installed the cameras and infrastructure despite the people giving a resolute NO during a consultation some years ago. Now some residents tell of the impact it's had on their lives and the awful way it's being enforced.
The difference between local government and the mafia is that the mafia had a moral framework.
‘Local’ government. It’s ALL government
@@hoonaticbloggs5402 Yes, absolutely. But local government are especially contemptuous. Still, they don't create foreign wars, I suppose.
Not to mention a ready supply of horse heads.
Well to a certain degree
What would happen if every Tradesman refused to go into their subjective CAZ's. The Councils would have to rethink their agenda. All our cities will end up as ghettos. They messed up their own lands now its our turn. We'll be arrested for not attending prayers five times a day in the future.
Vote out the Council and vote for sanity.
The lefty greeny woke commie lobby groups have infiltrated bureaucracy and if you don't comply seems you'll have the bailiff around selling your stuff. This is sick. I thought Communism was beaten when the wall came down in Berlin.
There are no sane people or parties to vote for.
Voting is not real. Its the greatest lie of our time.
Please dear God people go out and vote them out in May
Who ever you vote for its the same
Caz or ulez, £9 is the introductory offer, give it a few years and it’ll be £30
The self employed tradesmen will slowly disappear from our towns.
I wonder if it's part of a plan...small business should be enabled. They don't like us to have an independent philosophy for living.
Exactly,,,,, they need 🐑🐑🐑 to accept it first and then due to inflation or Russia invading ukraine or drought in Zimbabwe or stormy weather on planet mars could help this fraud tax rising to as you said 30 or even more who knows
You point out what the true agenda is..They want Small and medium business closed up. This must be faught against.

I have been going to Bath on holiday for the last 10 years and we usually spend as a family about £2000 in Bath.
We have stopped going to Bath on holiday because of this scheme.
We now go to Cornwall and spend our money there.
Up yours Bath Council, I also take every opportunity to dissuade folks from going to Bath because of this and its working as my mother in law usually has her birthday over a weekend in Bath, she now goes to the loverly town of Tetbury instead.
Tetbury is a much nicer place than Bath
A complete disgrace for honest working people.
That's why working people do not vote Liebour!
A relief for people who just want to breathe, meanwhile

@@sotlad not the govenc++t or councilors the wef
It isn't so much the Councillors- but the council OFFICERS who give out the fines willenilly, its job justification.
It's the WEF and the Government and the Council's, but everyone just keeps paying. Every, MP, Councillor, and corporation that is pushing this tax on air needs to be slung in prison. They are all corrupt thieving parasites .
So it's bad if you drive a polluting car ,but it goes away the moment you give the council some ........money
You can drive older classic cars into London and no charge, I think the cup off is 1980
Exactly. It's all about the money.
All the tradesmen and delivery people need to get together and refuse to do any work or make any deliveries in Bath. When the council and the people of Bath discover they can't get their roofs, fences, driveways or anything else fixed and mail orders are refused, the council will be forced to back down.
Totally agree. Thats exactly what they should be doing.
It won’t happen. It never happens. The councils know this full well, so that is how they continue on their merry way with schemes like this.
Easier said than done
my thoughts exactly, if you can't get deliveries, repairs, etc. you would find yourself living in total isolation, a prison in the making.
Resist people resist. WEF are behind all things like this.
Absolutely correct. It is just part of the gigantic WEF money-making scheme. Our biggest problem is that so many people do not care enough to look into the way in which they are destroying our lives. The WEF/government have openly declared war on us and they haven’t noticed yet!
😂😂😂😂😂😂
And the WEF are part of the UN Agenda 2030.
Why do the people pay it? Stand up to these bullies
Cos they're stoopid enough to elect them in.
Easier said than done Most self employed have enough to contend with why should they have to worry about being taken to Court let alone arguing with Bailiffs. Enough is Enough!
not worth the hassle, if everyone did it it would work though
Because they will happily ruin your life, fines, county court judgement, criminal charges. They will make it so you cannot get a mortgage, van loan or anything.
They'll repossess your entire home just look what they do to palestinians openly in front of worlds media cameras americans british europeans open jay no side
Don't pay any fines. I think I saw on a web site that birmingham city council had to scrapped 45,000 unpaid fines because of the controversial clean air zones.
That's what gets me. Just don't pay them.
Cut the cameras down, game over.
yes the council will have to scrap these fines as their is NO LAW to enforce any fine made under legislation (Westminster rules) hence all c19 fines were revoked..they had to be..don't pay folks!!!
still point blankly refuse the bath clean air zone fine and now with the bailiff fees it's up to nearly £800.00 .... I say take me to court and I'll show them my valid mot cert which clearly shows my van had passed its government emissions levels
@@richboydy What on earth does passing the MOT got to do with it.
Vote the councillors out
Voters often don't realise how few like-minded people it takes to replace a councillor. The results of local elections can sometimes come down to a few dozen votes.
Unfortunately, local government officials can be very difficult to remove, no matter how inept they are.
Inevitably, it may all come down to residents finding they simply can't find tradesmen willing to work in Bath.

No, it is going round in ever decreasing circles with the U bend in sight.
Bloody EU. We need to leave. Oh wait.
Down the shoot more like it ,We are done for if we let these tyrants get away with it. Have any of the councils told us what they will achieve with the extra dosh? How much will the cameras cost ?
I was brought up and lived and worked in the East End of London with all of the industrial pollution. Pea Soup Smog, Working and living in cigarette smoke filled environments ..I am still alive and suffering no consequences. Just another Tax...What about taking us for having windows like they used to do God knows how long ago .It was always joked they would tax us for breathing now it is no longer a joke. Thankfully I am old and won't have to hear about these fools for much longer
This is bullyboy tactics from councils that is scandalous, disgusting behaviour and actions handed down to ordinary people who just want to work and get on.
that's their standard behaviour in palestine. in front of cameras too
We need to have people manning phones at the council , not automated or e mail , someone needs to take personal responsibility for these errors at the time they are made ! That’s before we go into the matter of whether it’s even legal or not to extort money from people going about their everyday business.
The error is allowing councils to put these schemes into power in the first place. They dont need more telephone operatives, they need less power.
You are dealing with WOKE people. They can never be held Responsible for anything!!!
I have written to the Council, the MP for the area, two councillors as I was unable to contact by 'phone. Automated and waiting in a queue. Not long ago you could walk into a building near the town Hall, tell the receptionist which department you required, she would give you a ticket with a number on and you would sit and wait, probably half an hour for the number to light up. But it worked. You spoke to a person and could show them incorrect paperwork. The MP didn't get back to me. The councillor called and agreed with everything I said but couldn't solve the problem. Then I had a call from a young sounding man who apologised. He also answered the email I sent, others didn't respond. This has been going on for 3 years. I am sick of the Government and their changes and being constantly robbed. As we all are. So annoying for us all. It is done on purpose.
And what we the people need is our own 'terms and conditions'. The fact that these people wait months for a reply is outrageous. I have no understanding of the law but how about when we contact the council by email/letter we have a 'term and condition' that they reply within 7 days and if they don't we don't need to comply with whatever it is they want. And also in the same conditions costs applicable.
Councils make it difficult on purpose so your charges mount up, their not going to listen to the motorists, their going to keep going and squeeze every penny to fill the future kitty void when diesel gets phased out...
I live in outer London and Sadiq Khan is adamant in extending the ULEZ to the suburbs where the air quality is good. I check my weather app on my iPad daily, which shows the air quality always in the green zone (Index 2 and sometimes 3). Do people in Bath check the air quality for themselves? And if good, hold protest marches and complain to the councillors and MPs, as we do in London?
I am absolutely confident that in outer London (and perhaps in inner London - not Central London) that the ULEZ is simply a money making scheme and nothing at all to do with the health of the people. They use health to scare people and use it as a convenient way to pick peoples’ pockets with ease. This ‘green’ nonsense MUST stop.
khan said what price the health of residents of London, it appears its £12.50 a day
He can probably see another 3m people living in London, which is not outwardly apparent.
Any other ways to check the air quality ? like we need to its really is clean
Does the weather app include readings for NOX and PM? If not, it's a pointless exercise.
@@FullFact548 The iPad app that is available as standard does not appear to have the NOx and PM figures. But on checking the App Store there is an app which does have figures for NOx & PM, as follows, in my area:-
“Pollution Components Concentration in μg/m³”; NO₂ = 7.45; PM₁₀= 9.34; PM₂₅= 8.39; NO = 1.36. Besides these there are a few others.
As my speciality is not in this field, I would not know what these figures mean. Hence I go with the simpler version of Index and colour coding, which is always in the green (Index 2 or 3) where I live. If as you say, the weather air pollution app is useless without the NOx & PM then it makes me wonder why they should include this on the iPad as standard!

Question the legality of it all! We have an MOT in this Country if your car is 3 years old or older and it passes the MOT it’s deemed to be safe as far as emissions are concerned,so it’s legal to drive it anywhere in the Country!! As for the ULEZ BS don’t pay it. Thousands of people in Birmingham have refused to pay and the Council has had to right off the fines!!
It would be interesting to try and claim, or sue, for a rebate of road tax based on the fact that you're now unable to use roads you previously relied on. While the system is so corrupt such a case would be unlikely to succeed, I'd love to see someone try.
Got caught up in this last year. Went from Wareham to Bristol for work for the day in my van (don't own a car) and I got caught up in roadworks and then the rush hour and got shunted into Bath. Then a couple of months later I got a letter demanding £80 and if I didn't pay it would more than double. First I'd heard of it. I wrote a letter with the £80 payment explaining that I am a sole trader, I had never heard of the Bath clean air zone and was trying to avoid Bath to avoid the traffic. I didn't even get the courtesy of a reply. What a bunch of high-handed merchant bankers.
You must drive with your eyes closed. Plenty of signage telling you you’re about enter the zones.
@@sid35gb Not that I saw. If there are 'plenty' of signs they must have small writing. I was watching the traffic and worrying about where the hell I was going...
@@anemone104 they are there BUT if you are driving in an unfamiliar place it is easily possible to miss a few, or for a bus to obscure some.
We bought a car near Bath. Took park and ride into town and the buses advertise the scheme. Google maps also seems to know about it.
@@stephenhookings1985 Thanks, Stephen. At the time I didn't use Google maps (or a satnav of any kind). Still don't as a rule..... However you slice it, I didn't register any signs. £80 down the chunty, about half what I earned for the day.

Had a weekend in Bath a few months ago, arrived at night during a rainstorm, didn't see any signs about a "clean air zone". Nice weekend, good hotel, good food, spent quite a bit. A few weeks later received £210 in fines for access to from the car park through the clean-air zone. Won't be going back, really took the shine off a pleasant weekend.
To be fair to the councils they have to find a way of financing all those hotel rooms they have been booking for the guests of the nation. And the working man is always a good target.
Let's not use racism to discredit a real a real issue.
6 million a day it's costing, got to come from somewhere
if all tradesmen and delivery trucks refused to go into Bath or Bristol might have an impact
Or they switch over to electric vehicles which is what is starting to happen.
@@sid35gb seen many electric vans?
A tiny number of tradesman have bought electric vans and a lot of them have concluded they are not ready for purpose. Vans carry considerable payloads and the advertised range is decreased to an often impracticality low number of miles.
@@sid35gbEVs are GARBAGE. Useless
Yup. Let all the toilets stay clogged and electrical issues unresolved and see how long the tax stays in place.
Road Tax was changed to VED ( Vehicle Excise Duty ) to account for the emissions .....people are already paying through this
Exactly....you pay your road tax on what comes out of the exhaust.....we will soon be paying for every mile we travel.... courtesy of the mileage reading at the M.O.T renewal......the letters they send out are for the "user" of the vehicle and not the owner......within 10 years the whole country will be subject to ULEZ.

Just tell them to get stuffed & remind the council that you have already paid an emissions tax as that is what each DVLA road tax vehicle rate is based on, If they still insist on payment then tell the scamming council to ask the DVLA for it as that's where you have paid it..

It's incredibly distressing when you get one of these letters. More so if you're in the clear but it's our time you have to spend sorting it all out. I wish a court case could arise where the council is itself sued. Damages of £5,000 for each mistake they've made. If it goes as far as Bailiffs then that commands a £50,000 fine. Once a precedent is set then it may help them wake up.
get re mortgage and pay the fines
Local ‘authorities ‘ are rapidly becoming irrelevant. If they are ignoring the ( very real ) concerns and will of the people they work for, they must be removed.
When do we start removing them
Bet the Councillors will be driving fully compliant full public funded vehicles along their greedy expense claims ,and the Labour councils are the worst
Except that they are not necessarily compliant, many councils have applied for, and been granted, exemptions. The rules are for other people, not those in authority.
I cant honestly believe that any local government is any worse than another, they are all leeches.
'Labour councils are the worst' - evidence?
I can't understand why the government is allowing councils the power to treat British citizens so badly !!
Central government hates local government. In some ways they're allowing the councils to hang themselves on purpose, though it's the public that always suffer.
🆘 “ DISASTER CAPITALISM “ 💥 .
do you even ‘Great Reset’ dude ??!?!!?
And that's the problem. Genuine decent people cannot understand why, the road they have always driven down is now one way, no entry or blocked off with concrete planters. They can't fathom out why the road suddenly has a bus gate on it. They can't reason why it's now pedestrianised. They can't understand the CAZ tax. Why have the council shit on them like this? The reason is these councils are run, advised and steered by university bred technocrats who are introducing smart 15 city's by stealth, hiding behind the climate change agenda. The lockdowns were the test bed for the big society reset, 15 minute citys and zonal areas are being implemented and the decent guys in this clip are pissing in the wind with any form of protest. Urbanisation = gentrification = social cleansing = control. WEF, "you will own nothing and be happy"
The government are puppets ,they are taking their orders from Klaus Shwab at the WEF this is only the beggining - They are now wanting to ration water and put us on a diet made up of plants and bugs - Have a look at the WEF directives its all there in black and white
There's someone in bath that applied for a grant to get a new vehicle, they had given all funds and there was none available, they allowed this person and they are still driving with an exemption despite their vehicle not being compliant. The system does not work !
The system is corrupt.
when you get falsely accused tell them you paid & if they dont believe you, tell them take you to court. Don't give them reference numbers as councils are obliged to keep accurate records etc
The flaw with that strategy is that it costs you the time and effort to present your defence in court, while the council or its subcontractors get reimbursed for their wasted time and effort by the local ratepayers. Not an equal contest unless there is some penalty for the councils who make the errors.

Because your all scared of getting in trouble and of what other people think.
How will they preserve buildings in Bath - a World Heritage site - if tradesmen can no longer afford to access the area? Why don't they (a) give up on the stupid Ulez MONEYMAKING scheme, or at the very least, exempt tradesmen completely?
they don't care....these type of people just don't care - they would bulldoze Bath and rebuild it in their own orwellian image given half the chance.
I can never understand why anyone wants to visit a site that epitomises the ruling elites statement of power.
I'd love to know if the air in that area is measurably cleaner after all the price-gouging and clerical incompetence.
It isn’t no, because it’s how long vehicle chugs out the pollution. So as long as you have paid for your day it doesn’t matter whether you run your car or van engine for 10 minutes or 15 hours you pay the same. So once you’ve cross into the pay zone you may as well make hay. You will note however councillors and people like citizen Khan have exemption from paying any of it.
Just think about it like this, £12.50 per day after 30 days = £375. That's devastating.
Nothing fell of a cliff because of COVID it fell off because of the economic meltdown by an unnecessary lock down.
The councils don’t care about clean air - if they did, they’d ban the unqualifying vehicles: they just want the revenue.
Just horrific.
To be honest this is depressing, I can't believe that this is going on.
Pure evil is the only way to describe all this. Real people should not be putting up with this madness, end it now as enough is enough!! 😡

I remember in the 70s a Conservative think tank were trying to figure how they could tax the air we breath. It caused uproar. The air is not theirs to tax. We mugs fall for it every time. Someone's getting rich on us.

"Behavioral Change Team"? Wow, that's straight from Orwell's 1984
Keep a record and when you get a wrong charge refuse to pay and just write and say the charge is in error. Don't tell them why and let it all go to court. Turn up at court with your evidence, its a pain and it will be 6 months before it ends up in court, but having been through this twice with parking fines its worth it. The court will find in your favour and award you costs. You may also be able to get an injunction to stop them writing to you and it will all be openly reported.
Power where it belongs - with the people!
This all very well but when you run a small business or are simply self employed life is stressful enough. The Government wants people to get back to work .Work is fine but add on the stresses that's a different ball game
Do these councils realise that China and India are not worried about this crap and allow their citizens work to benifit the community. Great way to turn England into a third world country.

I don’t live very far from Bath but stopped going to the place years ago as they made it more and more difficult for motor vehicles to get around in the city centre…. I use out of town shopping centres for a lot of things now because I can park there with no hassle.. I have now had to look at the way I can get to the RUH in bath should I need to in my van without entering the rip off charges.. I just avoid the place altogether nowadays …….

Used to visit 3-4 times a year. Haven't gone since charge been installed
They want to comply but can't due to council madness. Glad I don't live anywhere near the madness anymore
its DISGUSTING DYSTOPIA
Oh for sure, it's weird! I thought Covid would make bureaucrats realise that people don't want this kind of overkill rules based regulation of their lives. But no. They'll always find something new to control people, and if can't find it, then create a new ideology about "the end of the world" if we don't conform to new rules.
I wonder how anyone could be expected to know all the rules for each different town or county.
We shouldn't be paying any other charges if you pay road tax ' insurance mot as you have already paid to use the roads. It's extortion and a con.

No, we've got the stench of councillors and MPs robbing us.
No as the ulez doesn't clean the air it just a way to collect money.
Not the last time i was in bath around Christmas
Read the magna Carter constitutional law says you should have trial by jury even for fines so unlawful!
Vote out all the councillors who support the CAZ
Refuse to pay and let them take you to court, its up to them to prove you did not pay. Shame only a few naughty people will refuse pay, Bham council has scrapped many fines on those who did. Lets face it if its easy for them to collect they will keep coming back for more..

World Economic Forum. Agenda 2030. It's all there plain as day.
Probably the tech companies selling the cameras and running the systems which will be used for additional purposes in the future. Facial recognition coming to a clean air camera near you!
@@barrieshepherd7694 the bureaucrats are nothing but perverted thiefs. I hope their cameras burn up.
If we comply to this 3xtorsion they will grow in power and tyranny. We all have to remind councils we are their employers.
The only way to make them stop is to collectively stop paying the council tax en masse. Once they have so many people they cannot deal with, it becomes a big problem, for them.
Can anyone explain to me
How does it clean the air when I pay ???
When I don’t pay the airs polluted…. But when I drive the same van and pay …… it’s clean
WTF
You have the right to en masse ignore it.
How many trees will have been cut down to produce all the paper for the bills, fines and apologies these hard working, paying, people have received. Talking about clean air.. Trees that could have been producing nice oxygen and reduce co2 levels, without these good people having to pay for nonsense regulations which have no base of science, but to fill the pockets of those whom already earn to much taxpayers money..
When people say the council are going to assist in buying you a new vehicle where do they think that money is coming from. Councils and government are no longer fit for purpose
I used to visit Bath quite a lot, but since they bought in these measures i have not been back and i know a few others who won't go to Bath either, its not worth the hassle in case you get a fine through the post.
Bath has got a park and ride why drive into the town centre where there’s limited parking and lots of traffic?
Well if all the plumbers said enough is enough and refused to work they would drop the tax pretty fast.
throw the letters away and go to court show them to be fools then Sue
I've had false letters like this from my council, and I kept them all and then filed a small claim against them. Once they received the paperwork from the small claims court and had 21 days to respond, they couldn't get round to my house quick enough with a settlement. Play them at their own game,
Well done for voting liberal,
Straightup gather all the people in this video and create a class action lawsuit against the council, any lawyer would be happy to take the job. In the UK this is called "Group litigation". I strongly believe you would win a large settlement from the council for them fucking up their own systems. And win even more for the coutry court judgements + damaged. Lawyers please go talk to them.
This is the freedom tax. We need to take care of these cameras now!!!!!!!!!
I've just completed the paperwork for a speeding fine and they take your partners income into consideration including disability benefits which I think is disgusting because based on that logic then it's OK to ask your partner to take the points for you?
Extortion is a crime. Funding crime is also a crime. Paying your tax is therefore a crime. Cite that and don’t pay it.
Its control of movement and making things as difficult as possible. What can be done to make things difficult for them?
