Reeves says petrol is still expensive.
So the 5p cut in fuel duty will be extended until 2026, she says.
Great. So polluters get to continue to poison us. Yet EV drivers get penalised with pay per mile.

The Chancellor justifying Scotland getting a block grant with this bullshit.
The No vote in 2014 was supposed to bring all sorts of wondrous things. Instead we got Brexit forced on us, despite voting 62% against, and were the only constituent of the four not to get what we voted for.

One of my favourite things about Morden Life is after you’ve had a painful conversation with some company/org’s customer service, and then get immediately sent a survey to tell them how they did.

Wee treat for us rural EV users, getting charged for each extra mile trying to find a public charger that a) works b) doesn’t cost a kidney, or c) take approximately working week to give you a full charge.
