EV drivers do pay for road maintenance, through the exact same general taxes everyone else does. VED hasn’t funded roads since 1937. Stop pretending otherwise just to justify a new tax.

When bad bosses can unfairly dismiss workers from day one, workers must be protected from day one. That’s what we promised in our manifesto.
A Labour government must not turn its back on the very people we were elected to represent.
Claiming you 'expect it from Labour' isn’t high minded debate, it’s just needless political willy waving. And making Nazi comparisons in a political debate is irresponsible and inflammatory. Anyone in public office should know better
So let me get this straight:
My diesel Smart pays £20 a year,
but my zero-emission Tesla will soon cost £435?
Only this government could tax clean air more than actual fumes.
EV drivers did what we were told, and now we’re getting mugged per mile.
What an absolute joke.
Liz… the only person who shouldn’t comment on economic competence is the PM who tanked the UK faster than a Tesco lettuce. You cost the country £30bn in 44 days. Sit this one out.
Riding again in Brighton this Saturday for @theCALMzone. Excited and nervous at the same time. All for a good cause and sharing my story of surviving a brain tumour and the mental health struggle following it. 🚴♀️🧠💪 #Brighton#MentalHealth#BrainTumour#WNBR
