final new ward boundaries in palmers green area 700pxThe new wards in the Palmers Green area that we will be electing councillors for on 5th May

If you want to vote in the council elections on Thursday 5th May, you need to be on the electoral register. If you're not on it, the deadline for registering is 11.59pm on Thursday 14th April (so imminent!). You don't necessarily have to be a British citizen to vote - certain other local residents qualify. To find out more and to register visit www.gov.uk/register-to-vote.

Since the 2018 elections wards have been redrawn across the borough and it's difficult to predict quite how this will influence the future make-up of the council. The post-May 2022 Palmers Green ward - with only two councillors rather than three - looks very different from the current PG ward.

London is addressing its position as a “car dominated” city through its transport strategy; a position signed off by HMG. That’s fact. Exactly how that occurs moves into the field of opinion and the local elections have the matter as an item. Self-evidently personal driving is going to become more burdensome over time, but how? The election literature to date suggests to me that some candidates / parties don’t have a scooby, instead playing a negative / consultation / listening card(s).
To assist, the attached academic link reviews the compilation of almost 800 studies undertaken on the subject across Europe since 2010. Most impactful is a congestion charge, followed by car free streets and segregated cycle lanes. Ten other categories follow. It may assist in focusing political thinking.

I was perhaps most taken by its (rather shocking) introduction:

Question: what do the following statistics have in common?

- The second-largest (and growing) source of climate pollution in Europe.
- The leading killer of children in both the US and Europe.
- A principal cause of stress-inducing noise pollution and life-shortening air pollution in European cities.
- A leading driver of the widening gap between rich and poor urban residents.

Answer: the vehicles on our streets, primarily the not-so-humble passenger car.
