UK Politics
General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both [email protected] and [email protected] .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
[email protected] appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

There was plenty of demand when fuel prices shot up a few years ago, but since then, unless you have access to off street parking and your own charger, it's become more expensive to drive an EV than a combustion car.
When the price of oil goes up the government falls over itself to subsidise and bring it back down. When the price of energy goes up they shrug their shoulders and slap 20% VAT on public chargers. It's insane and hardly any surprise that demand has "flagged".
