High pollution levels in London are expected to fall. The capital has been blighted by increased levels this week with London Ambulance Service reporting a 14 per cent increase in emergency calls for people experiencing breathing problems.
Boris Johnson must take action and show real leadership on London's pollution problems, Labour have said, as they attacked the mayor's comments that air quality in the capital "seemed perfectly fine".
Onkar Sahota, health spokesman for the London Assembly Labour group, said:
Boris Johnson was accused of "dangerous complacency" after urging Londoners to "keep a sense of proportion" over the pollution scare.
Pollution levels in London are 'high' today according to the Government and the Met Office but what is causing the increase?
