Posted: 16:13 - 29 Sep 2022 Post subject: Protest against motorcycle parking charges in London |
|
|
Hackney Council in London plan to charge motorcycles £6 per hour for parking, the same price as cars, which would effectively ban commuting by motorcycle or scooter by making it cost up to £14,000 per year. If this spreads it will mean the end of motorcycling in London. Our petition against the charges has gained 5,500 signatures.
On Saturday 8th October we're holding a protest ride against the proposals, starting from Downs Park Rd, E5 8JY at 12 midday. You can find out more details on the Facebook event page, and we will post further updates on Facebook and on Twitter nearer the time.
Please attend if you can. If Hackney get away with this other London councils will do the same, and then it will spread outside of London. A strong showing will put real pressure on Hackney, and act as a warning to other councils across London and the UK. |

Architect of the parking plan, Cllr Mete Coban MBE, had previously admitted during a council meeting in July that data used during the public consultation, which claimed PTWs produce higher nitrogen dioxide emissions than cars, was flawed. Drift Hunters
A Green Party councillor proposed the cabinet review the evidence, a motion seconded and supported by Tories, but Labour voted it down. |

The youngest ever elected Councillor in the London borough of Hackney, he is currently serving the administration as the Cabinet Member for Energy, Waste, Transport and Public Realm.
In the New Years 2020 honours list, Mete received an MBE for services to young people recognising his efforts to make politics more accessible for the younger generation.
