Wonder why that is???
What do they expect though….. London has a big population, they have two airports on their doorstep, massive amounts of traffic inbound everyday and they want more and more tourism. But…. They don’t want the pollution but they want the taxes etc etc. None of it makes sense, it just strikes me as a cake and eat it scenario.
EV’s have a future but as I’ve said before, the tech and other associated stuff needs to catch up with expectation. We’re still a way off that yet too imho.
People are now starting to see that the blue sky that the government are painting has a few ugly black clouds in it that needs to be dealt with before it becomes good for average Jack.
