At last, woodburners and the harm they do. I am sure people are not aware of the pollution in their homes of their own making with gas ovens and hobs too. Picking on cars in Outer London which pollute less a distraction and cash grab.

Tell them, I've gone green. Got rid of my oil boiler and got clean electric heating.
Tell them, if only my electric bill was affordable, then I wouldn't need to use my multifuel stove as back-up๐ฌ

Enjoy your trip Gary. Sorry to see you getting trolled on here, I certainly wish my neighbours using wood burners understood & saw the value in gas boilers and heat pumps. Thank you for your work showing the importance of clean air and furthering policies to get us there.
Mind blowing when you consider only 8% of UK households use them and many of those will only use them occasionally or to supplement other forms of heating. Wood burners should come with a warning label.
