Local people are frustrated by an increase of up to 1,800% in parking charges for electric vehicles. They are being penalised for doing the right thing to tackle the climate emergency.

Nickie and Richard spoke with local Pimlico councillor, Ed Pitt Ford.

Help hold Westminster's Labour Council to account

Monday, 18 August, 2025
