If this was actually true, you would accept the fact that TfL's own figures show that the Silvertown Tunnel will worsen CO2 emissions and increase dangerous pollution in some of the least affluent parts of London. And you'd have the courage to do something about it.

We need many more cycle crossings in SE London. We call on the GLA and @TfL to repurpose both Silvertown AND Rotherhithe Tunnels (to start with). @willnorman

@crisortunity Any term you use is going to be made toxic by fossil-fuel-lobby-funded astroturf 'backlash'. It's important, though, to identify this backlash for what it is - an attempt by massive companies to defend their profits - not as the 'culture war' it pretends to be.. @ChiefExecCCC
He has never spoken out against the #SilvertownTunnel (as it was his own and Ex Mayor John Bigg’s brainwave apparently). But he did offer a “genius” solution to the problem of the pollution it will bring. @SilvertownTn london.gov.uk/press-releases…
@SilvertownTn This pollution tunnel idea for #SilvertownTunnel was slammed by pollution experts like @DrGaryFuller @asthmalunguk and @GreenpeaceUK, citing short term and long term risks of harm to health of drivers, let alone residents. unearthed.greenpeace.org/2017/08/03/air…
@JolyonMaugham Mr Khan is less directly offensive than Susan Hall, for sure. But it's arguably worse to pretend to the public that you're a climate and air quality activist while quietly building roads & permitting airport expansion, than it is to directly advocate for lower costs for drivers.
@JolyonMaugham FWIW, those familiar with the Mayor's Office know that Mr Khan is a deeply mediocre administrator, with little interest in policy or outcomes, who uses his post (quite effectively) for self-promotion, but has done almost nothing that TfL had not already planned under Mr Johnson.
@JolyonMaugham And he's just not telling the truth - and refuses to tell the truth - about what's by far his biggest investment as Mayor, a £2bn road. Mayor Khan is not a racist - but as Mayor, he's either incompetent, or deliberately dishonest. London deserves better. bylinetimes.com/2024/02/22/cle…
@JolyonMaugham Not helpful to be parroting the Mayor's own rhetoric. It won't be close. It's useful also to remember that Mr Khan, despite his rhetoric, will be responsible for, overall. a long-term increase in London's CO2 emissions. bylinetimes.com/2023/05/31/sad…
That Woolwich foot tunnel has been unavailable to disabled people, those with reduced mobility / shortness of breath and most cyclists for almost two years is shocking. Vast sums have been found for #SilvertownTunnel, but nothing to replace lifts that are not fit for purpose.

How can there ever be any change if a Labour mayor doesn't even listen to his own party? And Labour Assembly members have repeatedly prevented @LondonAssembly for properly holding the mayor to account for spending £2.2bn of public money on new road infrastructure.
Jon Burke ' Silvertown was [is] an example of of the mayor @SadiqKhan failing to make the deep structural changes that were required to meet the challenges of the escalating climate emergency'. @jonburkeUK theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
"by ploughing on with Silvertown he (Khan) has embedded significant transport emissions and pollution for generations to come" : google.co.uk/amp/s/amp.theg… @jonburkeUK
Labour Assembly members have repeatedly prevented the @LondonAssembly properly holding @SadiqKhan to account for spending £2bn of public money on new road infrastructure that undermines his own key policies for no benefit. Even if you vote for a Labour Mayor, don't vote for them.

No mention of the Silvertown Tunnel in Mr Khan's manifesto, despite the fact that green-lighting this project is his biggest spending decision, by far, as Mayor. It's almost as though he doesn't want Londoners to know about this immensely wasteful environmental disaster.

It's ironic that @LondonLabour @labour supporters plan to vote for @SadiqKhan @MayorofLondon out of loyalty to the Labour party, when Sadiq showed no loyalty towards @NewhamLondon and @Royal_Greenwich when he ignored the Labour borough's objections to the Silvertown Tunnel
@JustPlaneNews @TheGreenParty @ZoeGarbett With local residents I've been advocating for trees, especially mature ones. These were chopped down to make way for the Silvertown Tunnel. There are many other examples here in Greenwich and we continue to highlight how important *mature* trees are for our environment.
@JustPlaneNews @TheGreenParty @ZoeGarbett @SilvertownTn @UrbanTreeFest Over 100 trees - mature oaks, Victorian London planes, willows and disease resistant mature Elm & rare black poplars. All felled about 3 years ago. These will be replaced by Riverlinx Consortium but not as many as were lost. But we all know you cannot replace a veteran tree.…

@LondonFOE @SadiqKhan @LondonLabour Thanks for responding. Leaving your most carbon-intensive, and most expensive (by far) policy out of your manifesto entirely is an easy way to game the process!

@loweringthe_bar @SilvertownTn @GRussoLD @JustPlaneNews @SadiqKhan @JoanneMcCartney @mikehakata @CargoRevolution I think we need both. It’s a long way round by cargo bike from SE London to E London currently, and that gives motors a free advantage that it doesn’t make sense to give them, given the problems caused by excessive motor usage.

Why I’ll be voting for @ZoeGarbett and @LonGreenParty on 02-May.
Mayor @SadiqKhan's plans to open the Silvertown Tunnel to motor traffic will lock in more traffic, higher CO2 emissions and worse local pollution for decades to come. We endorse @ZoeGarbett and @TheGreenParty's plan to re-purpose the tunnel for active travel and public transport.
If @SadiqKhan was really the “enemy of the motorist” he wouldn’t be building the Silvertown Tunnel. #ToryLies #SusanHallLies
@BELLEGREENWICH @ZackPolanski Considering it’s currently in the process of construction, here’s a thought: Scrap everything to do with cars and the tunnel, turn it into a lighted fully pedestrianised walking/cycling affair like they recently did in Norway with the Fyllingsdalen tunnel.
@JustPlaneNews @TheGreenParty @ZoeGarbett With local residents I've been advocating for trees, especially mature ones. These were chopped down to make way for the Silvertown Tunnel. There are many other examples here in Greenwich and we continue to highlight how important *mature* trees are for our environment.
@JustPlaneNews @SadiqKhan @SilvertownTn @JoanneMcCartney @mikehakata Lib Dems have fought the disastrous Silvertown Tunnel from the get-go. It’s the Mayor’s “dirty secret” - and should more aptly be called the Sadiq Khan Motorway. I’ve been calling on the GLA to do more to protect Mature Trees and if elected would make sure local plans make…
