    @ Craig T,

    ‘Oh and just wait till your electric car gets taxed to the hilt to make up for the government losing revenue on new Petrol and diesel cars.’ They will not lose revenue on sales as all new vehicles will be taxed on EV sales, same as ICE cars are taxed.

    Or do you mean fuel duty and the like?

    Indeed, I did comment on that a few days ago.  The Govt is going to lose all that tax revenue from fuel sales and road tax.

    They will have to be creative in creating a new tax system to make up for lost revenue. That is well known.

    No problem there – someone will have to pay for lost tax in ditching fossil fuels, and it will be every tax payer in the country.

    That is a given.
