Of course this bunch of lefty woke arseholes have been pushing all this Net Zero bollocks since it became in vogue. They are total hypocrite's this is the same council who have cut down hundreds of trees for their useless vanity projets. Which BTW are not fit for purpose and require thousand more spent on it to make it safe for pedastrians....
Labour council’s plans for a congestion charge in Cambridge have been formally abandoned after the “punitive” levy was rejected by the public. Car owners were facing a payment of £5 a day to drive at peak times, with Cambridge City Council leaders hoping to use the cash to fund local transport infrastructure. But the Greater Cambridge Partnership (GCP) confirmed on Thursday that the plan will not be carried forward after it was rejected at a public consultation by three in five respondents (58 per cent). It follows a backlash to schemes in Labour-run London and Wales with motorists subjected to additional taxes and sweeping 20mph speed limits as part of a drive to lower carbon emissions. Responses to the survey included fears among residents that the charge would be “unfair or punitive” amid cost-of-living pressures. Earlier this month, the Labour group on the council voted to withdraw support for the proposal and said it was worried about the “impact on low income families”. Elisa Meschini, the chairman of the GCP, said: “It seems completely clear from the debate that’s gone on that we are not in a position to recommend that the county council receive the scheme for further work. “As a result, that recommendation today will not be made.”

They don't give a shit about their "Consultations". Around here LTNs were rejected by the majority of respondents but they went ahead anyway (and have since been removed as they turned out to be unlawful).
No, they've all just realised that this net zero bullshit is a massive vote loser and the first party to propose binning the lot will win a landslide.
My prediction is that enviro-bollocks will be the hill on which Labour will die come the next GE.
