The Government should improve and make public transport more accessible, financially and logistically.
@9NL4FTV6mos6MO
No, not until there is proof of safer and longer lasting power supply than lithium. The mining, manufacture and disposal of EVs is terrible for the environment.
@9ZS7WFP1wk1W
Stop making petrol and diesel cars and allow people who own to continue use and change petrol stations to have more charging points. Old retro cars will never be able to be illegal if you own it you can use it but stop making NEW cars that require petrol or diesel

Require everyone to switch to hybrid cars by 2030 and push for them to mainly run on electric with a petrol/diesel reserve.
