Saying "no fucking GAS cars" is just staving off the inevitable for another couple years.
It's virtue signaling. Notice that this is what politicians always do. They either do nothing to solve a problem, making meaningless statements and gestures, or they take some extreme or off-base action that pleases one part of the electorate but completely misses the mark or is a temporary fix at best.
Mmmmm in London I still believe it's ultimately about wealth.
Linking it to eco cars WILL NOT meaningfully reduce traffic in the CCZ, it'll just increase eco car ownership in the CCZ.
Sooner or later, someone at TfL and the GLA will have to bite it and say "no private cars, period", and the rich will get them fired. Saying just eco cars is just staving it off a few more years.
