First farming, now cars. The EU is definitely winning the race to the bottom they said the UK wanted. Brexit failed, time for Lexit

Last year, over 381,000 electric cars were sold in the UK – more than any country in Europe, and the third highest number of any country in the world. The British public is embracing the move to electric vehicles, benefitting from the cheaper running costs, cleaner air and quieter neighbourhoods that these vehicles bring.

Our domestic vehicle manufacturing industry – an industry that is critical to the UK economy – is embracing this change and rising to the challenge. Collectively, since the announcement of the ZEV Mandate, manufacturers have committed to investing over £20 billion in UK vehicle manufacturing: designing new vehicles, developing new technologies, and ultimately pivoting facilities and supply chains away from fossil-fuelled cars to those running on technologies of the future
