Compare and contrast the Government language.
£3,750 EV grant on a £35k car: ‘helping families’.
Cycle to Work: ‘subsidising leisure’.
And yet cycling delivers TEN TIMES the impact of electric cars for reaching net zero. It’s almost like narrative, not data, is driving policy.

And let’s not forget that austerity is a political (not economic) choice to funnel funds from public into private hands.

I'm not sure how Zack Polanski is navigating the political pathways to power. Every politician who gains power has had to accede to the wishes of the parasite class in some way. Any politician who appears incorruptible is considered extremist and destroyed by the billionaire owned MSM.
