“I would impeach him is that is that he's not being honest about. He's not he's being utterly dishonest. Because the truth is London's air is the best quality it's ever been. Literally since almost time began I suspect and we've got our areas is within the top 25% of major global cities.

“And the truth is, when you look at the reports that come out, the first US has made no defense whatsoever, less than 3% to the quantity of nitrogen dioxide.

“You look at the report about asthma again, it's there's no evidence that it makes any difference to the quality of asthma or children's lungs. This man is simply lying to London.”

GB News presenter Bev Turner did question Tice’s claims, she probed: “So when he's saying I've been spending time with people whose children died because is it? Is it?

"Is it just fabricating that he's deliberately lying to justify what is becoming and it is becoming his equivalent of the Tory poll tax in the 1999?"

Tice replied: “I'm glad you mentioned it and I've never known such anger amongst millions of people in London and outside London.

The penny is only just beginning to drop. It's going everywhere.

"But if you live in Banbury and you're going to drop off the relative at Heathrow for to go for a lovely holiday and you're in a nine year old, perfectly decent functioning diesel car, you've got to pay £12.50.

"You won't know about it. You'll get £160 fine, you'll be fuming.”

Tice added: "So look, the reality is that Sadiq Khan is just stubbornly pushing on. But this is not sustainable. I've never known anger like him and something we'll have to give. But also the gutless Tories. They could stop this within a week under section One.

"I'm afraid I'm going to call him out. He is a liar. That's the transport sector, right? He's the transport sector. He is lying when he says he does not have the power. He does under section 143, clause 1.

"The point is, bosses lead, right, lawyers advise you, then take that advice and decide whether you listen to it or whether you lead."
