May 6, 8:36am R4 now DieselsRPaedos long newsvert

Opening framing trick : playing old clip of kids/parents outside a school
"How old are you ? 6
What do you think of the high air contamination today ?
(do you get how ridiculous that is !!)

Sir David King went straight into "pollution =diesels"

"new vehicles don't make the standards"

He wants retrofitting of cleaning tech.
"recalling of all vehicles"
Against scrappage (yeh cos that doesn't help his subsidy mates)

Ended 8:45 saying they couldn't have another view cos Andrea Leadson is not available.
(Doh it's close to day after local elections)

Hahahahaha... the school told the kids not to breathe in too much??? Really??? Sounds unlikely!

@ActiveCampaigns
Without irony, parent says "I was driving the kids into school and I's seriously worried about air quality.".

"the children organised the protest about pollution I was there as the local candidate"
Said Kate Hoy about the event
Where she photoshopped the Liberal competitor out of her photo but left his legs.

Greens lie we know that well.

Monday: Today's pg4 of Times green-newsverts
- Rich areas like Mayfair most polluted
Links to pg29 Leader.

- Ice-Cream vans pumping out pollution.. due to fridges.
- Policeman had affair with activist in 1990s .. Now he's police commissioner so Lab MP calling for him to resign

pg 29 the story making another appearance in the Times Leader page

Dissembling PR : Today's claim is "High pollution is reducing house prices in UK "
Attributed to "Mark Hayward" MD of "National Association of Estate Agents"
Features on Times DieselsRPaedos normal newsvert page , page 4 "London’s best addresses to come with air quality alert"
..and then again in the editorial 'customers care about the pollution rating of a property as much as they care about the energy rating of a property' ..emm I don't believe him
'reduce value by 12%'
Hmm so where does this come from ?
Where's it been reported before ..in the Telegraph 3 days ago

Evening Standard 23 May 2016 08:53 BST
"London homebuyers looking for property in areas with low pollution
Low pollution is becoming a key criteria for Londoners choosing a new home"
Quotes Hayward and is V similar to today's article.

The DM quotes him in 2015 18 January 2015
Littered streets slash 12% off home's value: Sale price can be hit by thousands in untidy areas

Seems like him being a rentaquote guy
and PR guys google him and then cherry pick a story which they then reprint in the Times
wouldn't surprise me if Hayward is connected to the campaign somewhere.

Many people tweet their own story , maybe twice
@naea_uk retweeted that 2016 story 20 times ie almost daily

Seem to tweet positively for Labour
and negatively against Conservatives

Oh there's is something wrong with that Times editorial.
It makes a common error that I see on the work of a number of professional bodies, which shows they don't understand the 40K theoretical death stat.
The TIMES editorial begins
"More than 14,500 people have died air pollution-related deaths so far this year. "
err no they haven't. Practically no one has died from air pollution. It appears on NO death certificates.
BUT each of the 60 million living are having their lifespans theoretically shortened by air pollution by a few days per year. And if you add up all those lost days it adds up to the EQUIVALENT of 40K lifetimes THEORETICALLY and with a large margin of error.

Hey that Telegraph article from 3 days ago..that is not a normal article
Not just cutnpaste. It's a campaign vert
..They've added in "a pollution in your area tool" etc.

"A toxic air alert was issued for the first time in London over “very high”
..Maybe but pollution is way down on 30 years ago so cut the dramatic language

"Nearly 9,500 people died early in a single year as a result of long-term exposure to air pollution in London, a Kings College London report claimed."
No they didn't... it's theoretical equivalence
"If a house is in a highly polluted area, such as near a train line, it might go for a 15 per cent less than a similar property in a less polluted zone.”"

There's no open comments
Quoted Henry Pryor,whose been tweeting against pollution a few times since April 2016
I bet these mouths trace back to a London Cyclists group or Sadiq supporters etc.

the Times pollen maps give us a surprise.
grass, nettles, ash trees.
They show that London is low for grass, but densest for nettles and ash trees.

Each incident of high grass pollen is followed 4-5 days later by hospital asthma cases.

In London a black kid stabs another black kid every few hours. "14 people have been stabbed to death in London in the past 4 weeks"
Labour "anti stop and search" Mayor Sadiq Khan says "look over there, at people driving diesels".

the DailyMail includes two extra pollen graphs showing that London is high in birch and common Hazel, compared to the rest of the country.

I have a backlog of Times DieselsRPaedos newsverts but here are today's

Front page
"Air pollution can deprive you of a good night's sleep "
- and that's out of Martha Billings of University of Washington.

Wednesday - "Diesel Fumes trigger coughing nerves"
Quotes : Maria Belvisi of Imperial who did a study on PAHs a byproduct of burning diesel published in J of Allergy and Clinical Immunology

BTW the Times report again contains the 40K misunderstanding fallacy "tens of thousands of people are estimated to die early"
(no they are not; ALL people die early and the combined life days lost adds up to tens of thousands of lifetimes)

Monday : "Diesel causes Heart deformities"
Tweet of full article
..Actually Im pretty sure they already did this one ..It maybe on my backlog sheet

The Times Hyperpole today June 1 2017,
"Toxic air pollution clouds prospects in 50 marginal seats
Ben Webster, Environment Editor
"Fifty marginal seats have illegal levels of air pollution, according to analysis that suggests parties’ plans for tackling toxic diesel emissions could influence the election outcome."

(Photo Theresa May campaigns with Joy Morrissey, the Conservative candidate for Ealing Central & Acton — a constituency that has high pollution levels)

This kind of disingenuity leads me to label the campaign DieselsRpaedos
The article is entirely spin and false narrative construction
Then they have the gore to have a box right under the article ..actually on a different matter labelled FACT CHECKER , as if they are great bastions of the truth.

Truth actually involves , keeping things in perspective and not lying by omission.

The fact is
- the vast majority of roads in those constituencies meet EU laws evry day
- Some rush hour roads breach the laws some hours of the year
- The laws themselves are a biy arbitary and the measurements are impresise
- Graphs show that pollution has fallen massively over 40 years as engines evolve to be cleaner ..and there is no reason to not believe that the roads would be dirtier in 20 years than the law reqires.

BBC I've got you banged to rights ..acting as an eco-political-lobbying group using licence payer money

If you were an ACTIVIST eco-organisation trying to change UK policies
you might use YOUR OWN MONEY to make a custom graphic and a GIF89 animtion to promote your cause

But if you were a PUBLICLY FUNDED ..IMPARTIAL ..Radio show ie without pictures you wouldn't waste money
.... Well not unless you are Womans Hour

There is no evidence to suggest that within the next decade or so , the EXISTING evolving ever cleanliness of vehicles won't bring the almost all roads within EU limits
and anyway we won't be in the EU.
The vast majority of UK roads already meet limits , it' just certain roads and certain time, certain weather conditions that don't.
The BBC graphic

The BBC Gif animation ...for sound only radio show

Wednesday : Sir David King
"Children in cars *could* be exposed to more pollution that those outside, Prof Sir David King warns"
* "could"= spin not science
"If more drivers knew the damage they could be doing 2 their children,
I think they'd think twice about getting into the car"

Its practically zero ... The special situation is only when stuck in heavy city traffic jams.

I hope they didn’t use any diesel fire engines at Glenfell Tower !
particulates from them could harm peoples health.
Seriously I wonder in the coming month how much of the particulates entering West London’s lungs will come from the fire compared to diesel vehicles ?
