Every fastest selling used car in the UK right now is electric

0% VAT, we've got a new prime minister.

Andy Burnham stepped in, and he said he's gonna give 0%, uh, VAT on home domestic energy or electricity.

So that means good news for a lot of people who are gonna save a bit of money this winter with electricity prices in the UK being higher than anywhere else in the world.

But it also means that the disparity between home charging your electric car and public charging your electric car is even wider.

So I know it's a bugbear, and I know we go on about it a lot, but why, oh why, do the people who don't have a drive have to pay a lot more money to drive their car if it's an EV? If we're trying to encourage people into EVs, why are we making the disparity so stark and difficult? Why is charging, public charging still difficult? What is it about the network that apps are difficult to main- to, difficult to use, the charging network's difficult to understand, CCS 2, Level 2, all of those things.

There's loads of barriers.

I'm watching a free market evolve in this space, and have been doing it for some time, and it's getting really, really, really good with a really extensive network, but everyone's in competition with each other still.

There is some con- there is some amalgamation going on amongst charging companies, but that's because there's a sad story going on with some going bust.

So they're being eaten up, and then going into, uh, you know, smaller amounts of networks, which means fewer charging apps.

That's good.

But I think we need to just continue to drive this.

If we want EVs to work, then we've got to really push for it, and, uh, domestic charging and public charging rates should be similar.

It shouldn't be hard to own an EV, um, if you don't have public charging, if you don't have the facility for home charging.

And, uh, our public council checker for cable gullies is going really, really well.

We've had lots of new club members come on, so thank you very much.

You're seeing this month's rates for home tariffs, slow, rapid, f- uh, AC charging, and so on.

All the latest rates are in there.

So I'm hoping that we're beginning to help you guys get, um, make the ownership proposition a little bit easier and a little bit more fluid.
