  We need to avoid providing opportunities for the comfortably well off to virtue signal especially if the facilitation of that is at the cost of and to the less well off.
  
  However, I am not opposed to EVs, in fact I think we need to positively encourage uptake both of private vehicles and most especially buses and local delivery vehicles.
  
  Perhaps this could be through a reduction in the licence fee, coupled with pollution charges in town areas for non electric vehicles.
  
  EVs are not the magic bullet that will solve climate change, given the current environmental issues around the manufacture and disposal of their battery packs etc., though they are absolutely a part of the answer to the level of pollution in towns and cities and should be embraced for that.
