There's always a reason, the smoking ban met huge resistance, everything from 'freedom of choice' to 'All the pubs will go bankrupt. and never a mention of the expected vast falls in cancer emphysema and heart disease etc that followed. Same again when they banned coal burning in cities. Always the naysayers are there predicting failure and catastrophe. What you have to listen to is the facts, not just the noise. Many pubs have gone and are still going bankrupt; tell us the unequivocal facts. Yes and true in my local area too. A pub down the road has been closed for about ten years or more.

The love affair is over with the overhyped overpriced great EV con. Is demand for electric cars declining? Two major driver surveys find fewer plan to buy an EV compared to a year ago - but what does the sales data say? AA survey of 15k drivers found that 18% plan to buy an EV next, down from 25% in 2022 DfT poll of 2,171 people also found just 57% are considering an EV in the future Both polls identified high EV prices and lack of chargers the main concerns We look at registration data and speak to used market experts about EV appetite A number of reports in recent weeks have suggested that Britons are starting to switch off to the idea of owning an electric car - but what do drivers have to say about it? According to a new poll of 15,000 motorists by AA cars, 22 per cent said they will be buying a new or used motor this year - which is the same proportion as when it quizzed Britons about their intentions at the beginning of 2022. link

I don't have an exact answer to every scenario you throw up. In this case it would depend on the road. For instance if the public road allows parking outside your home then either these But it doesn't. There are quite a few problems you haven't addressed. But it could, its an easy solution. I have addressed many and I'm happy to answer more relevant and likely ones.

There is a 8 to 14 month wait for a new electric car at the moment. Sure, people who can't get an electric car tend to look elsewhere.

I have finally found a benefit with EV's. - they are absolutely crap at towing so we will have less caravans and horsebox's on the roads....whats not to like.. ..and this was towing with an EV that had the battery power to do it - but this EV costs £115,000!
