Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

You're from UK that somehow found the funds to enforce "pls don't carry a knife"
What I'm saying is that there's always means to fund reasonable effort if there's interest for it in the government. Hell, UK found the funds to completely fuck the exports and imports to/from EU
While I agree that the government should fund sensible things. We're not even willing to fund our NHS, we're not about to fund free transport. So we need to look at practical means to make it fund itself and force the public to change their habits.
I would argue that public transport is up there in the top 5 things government SHOULD be funding, as part of critical infrastructure.
