Yup, I foresee all cars taxed per mile, on top of any other fuel costs.
The extra costs to owners waffled away by “saving the planet” rhetoric, “Net Zero” is the latest wheeze. No discount on fuel cost, electric, petrol or diesel. VED rates raised on electric to same levels as other cars to match their purchase price or size. Rapid chargers more expensive than petrol (close to happening already).
In life, it's not who you know that's important, it's how your wife found out.
