It's not cheaper today for many. Tax credits don't apply to all. What do you think will happen when the governments aren't getting their cut via gas taxes by a significant margin? They'll adjust as will the power companies.

We look forward to your Z28 trade in for something more sensible. You probably should stop voting too, one person can't make a difference right?

LOL, that's rich. They listen until they get elected. Even the well intentioned good folk get corrupted eventually. Both sides.

Ummm, it's the liberal politicians telling us we shouldn't use gas stoves and taking measures to ban them. The very same pushing EVs. Shocker you're bringing race into your argument. Would you like to reference Hitler in your next post?

Your climate change heros travel by private jet.

Please stop flying. There have to be many "clean" jobs in the UK. Blood is on your hands.
