If fuel duty is to pay for roads, why should boats pay for them?


If fuel duty and road tax revenues were spent on roads they would
indeed be paved with gold.

Now general revenue is going to have start subsidising the road user
as people go electric. Next thing is that we'll have to stop heating
our water and using airconditioners to make up for the power
shortfall.


There is more than enough spare grid capacity overnight and weekends to
recharge every vehicle an average of 2 times per week.
So how will you stop people charging a) in the evenings b) every
evening?
