Petrol and diesel cars to be phased out within 20 years?

lancpudn:
When the draft environmental bill came out they stated in 2019 that Quote …“we don’t want to swap 40 million ICE cars for 40 million big electric cars” :open_mouth:

Getting people out of private cars to lessen congestion has always been their next priority. The government is going to spend £billions on public transport infrastructure over the next ten years with bus, tram & train all integrated which will allow passengers to connect with all forms of public transport to get where ever they’re going & make it easier to pay through phone apps.
Greater Manchester transport authority will be one of the first to set this in motion greatermanchester-ca.gov.uk … t-network/

Which seems to totally ignore the fact that they would prefer to use their car than the bus.Just as I did when I started driving which meant around an hour max commute in a nice comfortable car door to door.In addition to an enthiusiastic liking for car culture during my time off.
As opposed to leaving the house before 6 am as part of a two hour commute involving 3 different bus routes and changes including almost the whole 281 bus route.Then the same to get home.Also no car culture to spend my hard earned wages on.
This isn’t supposed to be a miserable soviet style basket case however much the useful idiot melons want it to be.
