Shyam Batra Critiques 15-Minute Cities and WEF's C40 Agenda


In a provocative stance against the emerging concept of 15-minute cities, London mayoral candidate Shyam Batra has voiced significant concerns about the implications of this urban planning strategy. Describing it as a product of the World Economic Forum's C40 initiative, Batra warns that such developments could restrict personal freedoms, including driving traditional petrol and diesel vehicles. His remarks raise questions about the balance between environmental initiatives and individual rights.

Mayor of London candidate, Shyam Batra has spoken out against 15 minute cities and warns: “You won’t be able to drive a petrol or diesel car anymore… If you want food, you will get a calorie controlled system sent to you by text”.

He said that the 15 minute cities are something that the World Economic Forum (WEF) has created called C40.

The C40 network is a group of major cities around the world that have committed to fighting the scam known as climate change. It also supports their development and economies in ways that are respectful to the environment and the well-being of society Their main goal is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.


As of October 2023, the debate surrounding 15-minute cities has intensified, particularly in London, with various candidates speaking out against urban planning strategies seen as restrictive. Activism against these concepts has grown, with protests in cities like Paris and discussions in local councils about the implications for residents.
