In other words, this is pure tax manipulation disguised with greenwash. Worse still it's actually environmentally damaging.
The government approach to motoring and climate change is distraction and bullshit. They really hack me off.

Totally agree. If you put politicians, bankers, lawyers and civil servants in a room you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference. Thieving scum, the lot of 'em!!!
No offence to any politicians, bankers, lawyers or civil servents who may on this forum
