Londoners overall are very supportive of it given the fact it has been in place for 22 years now without a govโ€™t repealing it

In Canada it's a politically successful strategy to agitate the suburbs. Even if implemented at the start of a liberal government, conservatives would be able to get rid of congestion fees in as little as 4 years.

Look at what Ontario is doing to the bike lanes in Toronto. It has been a struggle to get the bare minimum of biking infrastructure put in over the last 3 mayors of Toronto and the Provincial Conservatives have successfully campaigned suburbanites against the bikes lanes that are not even present in their own neighborhoods.
