Very little coverage of this bill passing in the UK mainstream media that I have seen.
Many of the newspapers have campaigned in support of it.
Various major charities have campaigned in support of it.
Polls show the bill has high public support.
That leaves very little room for reasoned criticism of the bill.
because there's no opposition to it. everyone wants these rules. the opposition wants them strengthened for example. since there's no discord, there's really no news.
(But it'll probably get delayed again. You can't just price the poor off the roads nationwide and expect the economy not to nosedive. As well as charging options for people without large detached homes with private driveways/garages, we need affordable used EVs, and we need to be sure thet battery packs in those older vehicles won't be utterly worthless)
Will EVs have the multi-decade lifespan of a well-maintained ICE vehicle, or will they be on the scrapheap much sooner due to battery longevity issues, or repair-hostile practices as cars move ever further into 'tech product' status, unrepairable without proprietary tools/information/parts.
Meanwhile, the world seems to be getting ever more hostile to personal light EVs (e-scooters/bikes/skateboards)
It has been there, just not directly. Always ask yourself; what is the deeper unstated reasons why a story is being covered widely by mainstream media?
Things without tits gets little coverage in the UK mainstream media ;)
