I've just decided to pay the balloon payment on my RAV4 and keep it for as long as possible! I don't want an EV and I don't want a new ICE vehicle with all the speed limiting tech and double VED penalties! The government can shove it!
I feel the same. Unfortunately, I can also foresee control systems almost ready to impose, where tech will be used to curtail such freedoms. Because most people refuse to believe that governments would ever do this, what I see as control system elements, they accept the ostensible reasons given for each of them. For example, the whole concept of pay per mile has numerous, far simpler options, beginning with fuel duty. It is an extraordinarily burdensome technology based solution to a non problem to even consider ANPR cameras for such a purpose. That technology, I don’t buy the ostensible reasons for a second. Its definitely a control system element. So are facial recognition systems in supermarket checkouts. The list is long, and no, I’m not imagining it. It’s thoroughly creepy.
Are you serious. The budget wasn't bad for car drivers ? She hasn't put fuel duty up but she has done everything else she can to drive petrol and diesel drivers off the road and onto the road new with road duty. She is going to be the end of car manufacturing in the UK. Nobody wants EV's and she is stopping consumers from buying the ice cars that they want. Result industrial domestic suicide on the back of net zero, which with the UK acting alone, will do nothing for the environment, nothing !
I can't afford 40k for an Ev and even if I could, where would I charge it. What if like me you have health issues and can't spend over an hour on the road using buses to get to work. I'll just have to live off unemployment benefit then.
We've had 3 female PMs, it's a complete non issue that she's a woman chancellor, people only care if she's any good! Meritocracy please, not Identity politics!
Like the rest of these grifters, they are only glove puppets. The ones rolling out these money grabs, you never see or hear of them, the Civil Service are the real government.
Why should I be discriminated against for driving a petrol vehicle, when someone who can afford £30-£60k for an EV can get cheaper motoring at a loss to the general tax payer. Anyone that purchases an EV and enjoys a taxpayers discount should surrender their passport. You cannot be flying around the world being self-righteous. If anything, any vehicle coming from some of the most polluting countries should be paying an additional manufacturing pollution tax. You only have to look at HS2 to see the destruction of the countryside, but they are ok with that. Just a thought!
@69spook EVs are being subsidised through incentive schemes in the UK. I'd drive one, but there are no Tesla chargers and the insurance is over triple. Just not paying it when I can drive a lovely ICE SUV.
@ Sounds like you are making excuses for not driving an EV. No Tesla chargers, other EVs are available. Insurance over triple. EVs are available in lower insurance groups. 😉

Where is the benefit in buying a new car, compared to a 5 year old Japanese car? EU made cars are designed to be recycled within 7-8 years, so are pointless.
Still keeping the lunatic commitment to full EV by 2035 is simply killing the entire motor industry. People just aren’t taking up the technology at the %age they mandate. Let the market decide take up and vehicle manufacture . Net zero bollocks
LV tried to rip me off over 80% on my renewal last year so I went to another company. They are passing the costs of ev repairs to all cars including ice.
I applaud anyone who bothers but I don’t believe that these efforts made the slightest difference. Not on things government regards as important. Then, they do whatever they want and petitions, lobbying and demonstrations make no difference.
The increases in VED for new vehicles won’t affect me directly, but clearly will have a knock on effect on the quantity of available used ICE vehicles down the road. Whilst most people don’t purchase their new car irrespective of fuel type, the depreciation on most EVs currently will still be far greater than the VED increases on all but the very top end ICE ‘polluting’ models. The depreciation levels on EVs will also have to be reflected in the PCP or lease costs to cover the loss in vehicle value
Have you looked at the Taxation classes for vehicles, Confused i can't make head or tail of them! and to think it used to be £57 for one year no matter what you drove!
They need to get using the Bradbury pound, then they have no debt and can afford all the services to be paid for properly and no one needs to go without
Strange that they are giving the motor industry billions of £££ and yet at the same time they are going to hit them with a £15000 fine for every car that they sell if they haven't hit the ZEV Mandate.

@@69spook Not always so, my pickup truck is a 2013 and that cost over £300 last time I paid for a years tax. It's a diesel, 2.5L engine, not some huge CC American V8 truck.
As demand for petrol/diesel fuel declines, refineries will close and the price of fuel will rise without any control. So get your EV. There are loads of cheap EVs. I get paid to fill mine.
That's the last thing I would do is congratulate anyone in the Labour government. We already pay per mile with the fuel duty. Don't buy new cars stick with your old petrol or diesel cars.
I’m not convinced that they have the technology in place as yet. To make it work uniformly, I think they’d need always connected vehicles to facilitate measuring distance travelled. That, or people might be required to have their mobiles with them. The alternative is ANPR, which is almost if not actually error free on main roads like motorways. I don’t think it’s faintly possible however to rely on ANPR outside of built up areas. Where I live, a rural area, I can go for a decent drive / ride and not encounter a camera, as far as I know. I often fuel my bikes at home, so visits to fuel stations isn’t a viable way to charge PPM to specific vehicles, though price per litre purchased is of course captured. There’s an obvious alternative which is to pull the annual mileage traveled off the MOT database. Currently, recording the mileage at MOT is optional (I don’t know why that is). That they are not considering this I find creepy, and lines up with the concern some express that PPM is really a control measure and nothing to do with road pricing. For the vast majority of vehicles currently on the road, PPM is daft, because we already have it. It’s in the cost of fuel. Only EVs aren’t charged PPM in a consistent manner, because many people charge at home at discounted rates vs public charging.
@@GT380manThe biggest reason is this government is very unpopular and probably don’t want to make that difficult decision at the moment, with these changes there is no need. I expect we won’t see PPM until the ban on ICE car sales comes into force, at the earliest, whenever that turns out to be.
@@st200ol I suspect the introduction of PPM will come sooner than you suggest, because the loss of tax revenue as more people are forced to buy an EV will ensure the government has to bring in PPM to make up for the lost revenue and maintain the UK driver at top of the cashcow table.

Every new car is fitted with a tracker. They'll even ask you if your journey was necessary and fine you if they believe it wasn't. A vote for Starmer was a vote for the WEF not Labour. Welcome to HMP Britain.
This is a scam for people who bought a £30 a year to tax car and budgeted for it to be facing a £100 increase. "We knows people's pockets are tight so we didn't add to fuel costs" nah but you fkd us with road tax. France has 1p less per litre duty on Diesel than the UK but costs 9p a pop less.... France has 0 road tax for cars... Think about that. None. UK has the highest price of Diesel in the EU, and the 11th highest in Petrol. The 5p cut keep is justified. £50 a year extra top up is nothing compared to how much they're making more from Road tax, holding this is just to sugar coat and make it look like "we're lucky" when we're not.
To the best of my knowledge, the year 2030 is when new car sales of either petrol or diesel ICE'd cars will be implemented. 2035 would have beem better, to give the public a bit of wiggle room. Labour won't be in power by 2030 anyway.
Why are there potholes anyway?. Because the roads were not built properly in the first place and now with heavy EV's, they are just going to get worse.
I would love 1 single drop in the ocean of the 2 billion for automotive EV repair investment probably most will go to Tesla and places like Tesla Dartford. Just remember there made buy robots and repaired by human beings
I thought it was a good budget for car owners and everyone really. Of course there are areas of it that people are moaning about but I think if they’d look at the bigger picture for growth rather than just tomorrow and give it a few years perhaps we all will be better off. ❤
I wish they'd have put the duty back up on champagne. It tastes like sh*t , yet the torys love it because it's "upper class". Make 'em pay! Let them eat partly rotten food, drink disgusting drinks, but make them pay. Sad fools.
Also my boss runs a gas boiler servicing and maintenance company including new installs. He’s just lost about 10 grand a year thanks to Rachel Thieves. That’s before any of us get a pay increase this year. Can’t charge any more in the sector without losing business
@@keithvers569 Does it really though, do these small < 10 employee companies really contribute much to the economy? I know every little helps but we need more exports and higher value exports to really help with our economy. The problem is a lot of those companies have left the UK for various reasons. A few Labour manifesto ideas could easily turn into very big export ideas if given the chance. Big up Britain, I know lots of folk will be very upset to see Labour succeed though and will do everything in their power to ensure that they don't. Not having exports is kind of like not having any family income, giving pocket money to the kids from savings and then charging them for meals you have just gone out and bought the ingredients for. Self contained systems like that will never work long term.
Read between the lines. They are sticking to the 2030 deadline because it is in line with the EU. Regarding EVs "There will be new car tax rates to hit two million drivers next year as the DVLA announced significant changes to the Vehicle Excise Duty (VED). The changes will come into play in Spring and will hit electric vehicle (EV) owners. They will now be required to pay car tax, ending a period of exemptions that have been in place for drivers of electric vehicles. This will come as a shock to UK drivers who had been incentivised to choose electric vehicles because of the exemption." Now i will bet in the next budget they will bring in new price rises for petrol or possibly pay per mile across the board.
I've just decided to pay the balloon payment on my RAV4 and keep it for as long as possible! I don't want an EV and I don't want a new ICE vehicle with all the speed limiting tech and double VED penalties! The government can shove it!

You will travel by bus and be happy
I would love 1 single drop in the ocean of the 2 billion for automotive EV repair investment probably most will go to Tesla and places like Tesla Dartford. Just remember there made buy robots and repaired by human beings
Try1100000. For an audi
my i think i gone to sleep listening to this bore
I thought it was a good budget for car owners and everyone really. Of course there are areas of it that people are moaning about but I think if they’d look at the bigger picture for growth rather than just tomorrow and give it a few years perhaps we all will be better off. ❤
I wish they'd have put the duty back up on champagne. It tastes like sh*t , yet the torys love it because it's "upper class". Make 'em pay! Let them eat partly rotten food, drink disgusting drinks, but make them pay. Sad fools.
Not a chance, public servants don’t make the country any money. Less tax for entrepreneurs would encourage growth.
Also my boss runs a gas boiler servicing and maintenance company including new installs. He’s just lost about 10 grand a year thanks to Rachel Thieves. That’s before any of us get a pay increase this year. Can’t charge any more in the sector without losing business
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@keithvers569 Does it really though, do these small < 10 employee companies really contribute much to the economy? I know every little helps but we need more exports and higher value exports to really help with our economy. The problem is a lot of those companies have left the UK for various reasons. A few Labour manifesto ideas could easily turn into very big export ideas if given the chance. Big up Britain, I know lots of folk will be very upset to see Labour succeed though and will do everything in their power to ensure that they don't.
Not having exports is kind of like not having any family income, giving pocket money to the kids from savings and then charging them for meals you have just gone out and bought the ingredients for. Self contained systems like that will never work long term.
Read between the lines. They are sticking to the 2030 deadline because it is in line with the EU. Regarding EVs "There will be new car tax rates to hit two million drivers next year as the DVLA announced significant changes to the Vehicle Excise Duty (VED). The changes will come into play in Spring and will hit electric vehicle (EV) owners.
They will now be required to pay car tax, ending a period of exemptions that have been in place for drivers of electric vehicles. This will come as a shock to UK drivers who had been incentivised to choose electric vehicles because of the exemption."
Now i will bet in the next budget they will bring in new price rises for petrol or possibly pay per mile across the board.
