The paper's leader suggests opposition to a larger Ultra-Low Emission Zone (Ulez) in London, which is blamed for Labour's defeat in the Uxbridge by-election, is in its words the "tip of the iceberg". The Telegraph recommends holding a referendum on the goal of reaching net zero by 2050.

And the Sunday Times explains why the green man is slowing down at pedestrian crossings.
