800 Climate Spy Cameras Damaged or Stolen as London Revolts Against Green Agenda
Breitbart ^ | 10/04/2023 | KURT ZINDULKA

Posted on 10/04/2023 8:03:16 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

London’s Metropolitan Police has revealed that nearly 800 spy cameras installed to enforce far-left Mayor Sadiq Khan’s green agenda car tax have been stolen or destroyed since May.

In August, Mayor Khan expanded the Ultra Low Emissions Zone (ULEZ) — a system of fines and levies originally intended to reduce traffic and pollution in Central London — to the entire greater area of the British capital, thereby taxing thousands of workers driving anywhere in the city, including in suburban and semi-rural areas between £12.50 to £27.50 if their vehicle does not meet the local Labour Party government’s climate standards.

Update: Metropolitan Police confirm Fox has been arrested and taken to a police station for "suspicion of conspiring to commit criminal damage to ULEZ cameras and encouraging or assisting offences" https://t.co/xqueZbQIfI

‘Metropolitan Police confirm Fox has been arrested and taken to a police station for “suspicion of conspiring to commit criminal ‘damage to ULEZ cameras and encouraging or assisting offences”’

Good luck finding a jury that will convict, coppers.

Everybody is so quick to blame British hooligans and misfits. They’re wrong.

Are the Brits entitled to a jury trial?

Public and private surveillance cameras in the UK have been operating for decades, estimated to be 1.85 million in - - 2011. They go even farther back - earlier than 2002. They aren’t going anywhere.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_surveillance_in_the_United_Kingdom

An article published in CCTV Image magazine estimated the number of private and local government operated cameras in the United Kingdom was 1.85M in 2011. The estimate was based on extrapolating from a comprehensive survey of public and private cameras within the Cheshire Constabulary jurisdiction. This works out as an average of one camera for every 32 people in the UK, although the density of cameras varies greatly from place to place. The Cheshire report also claims that the average person on a typical day would be seen by 70 CCTV cameras.

The CCTV User Group estimated that there were around 1.5M private and local government CCTV cameras in city centres, stations, airports, and major retail areas in the UK. This figure does not include the smaller surveillance systems such as those that may be found in local corner shops and is therefore broadly in line with the Cheshire report.

They’d better hurry.

They have the same problem we do: They are now controlled by their Deep State.

And the UK doesn’t have a Trump.
