It comes as outrage builds ahead of the expansion of ULEZ to cover the whole of London from August 29. Secretive activists calling themselves the 'Blade Runners' say they are attacking ULEZ cameras, vowing they won't stop until every single one is taken down.One activist, a father in his mid-40s who wore a balaclava and declined to have his name published, told MailOnline he had taken down 34 himself."We are going to take down every single one no matter what," he said.
A spokesperson for Mr Khan said: "It is deeply disappointing to see opposition to a policy being used as an excuse for criminal damage.They added: "People are of course entitled to show their opposition to policies peacefully and lawfully. But causing criminal damage is never acceptable." The campaign group Clean Air in London says Ulez has reduced concentrations of nitrogen dioxide at the roadside where people most vulnerable to air pollution live, and attributes more than 15,000 deaths in the last four years to man-made particles in the air.
