FBPETrundlelin Thinking of buying one of these electric gems, a bargain £60K....but 5% off if you can phone a friend and get them to buy one too, gotta make sense for the environment
How about something a little more ambitious. All new cars at least hybrid by 2025. Solves some of the issues early and starts the process.
That is not possible
You are advised not to hold your breath when that is supposed to happen
KanchanGupta Screw that - more urgent is the need to ban all islamists from coming into the UK and to deport the ones already illegally in the country
CDNEnergyCentre can you send jkenney back over to 're-educate' Boris?
KanchanGupta This is a good initiative. But it needs to be accompanied by increased proportion of energy from solar and wind in the electric grid. Otherwise, its benefits are questionable. GreenEnergy ClimateAction
More left wing lunacy.

And where's all the lithium ..cobalt and charging infrastructure going to come from ?. The reality of the current tech vs aims .. but ..cancel hs2 and you'd have £106 billion to get started
The ' planned ' is a smart word. 😂😂
High cost to pay elsewhere, after you mine lithium salt nothing grows on the spoil and its higly toxic to the miners
InsiderOilers So, a right winger can accept that climate change is real.....are you paying attention realDonaldTrump & CPC_HQ leadership candidates?

Even BJ has been infected by the climate cult virus.
Lets forget the facts and carry on with the hysteria
Yeah, right.
your electric car (government car) won't work if you tell racist jokes.
Says man who will be nowhere near lose by then so can't be held accountable May as well guarantee we'll have a colony on Mars by 2060 as well
