To remove the planned mileage tax on electric and plugin-hybrid cars, and to equalise VAT on public charging to 5% to support adoption.

Reduce VAT on public electric vehicle charging to 5% in line with home charging
Reduce VAT on public vehicle charging to 5% inline with home charging so people without home/off street parking are not penalized. I think it would accelerate the potential of electric vehicle take up.
Revise the eVED Taxation on Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles (PHEVs)
We call on the Government to revise the proposed eVED charge to prevent 'unfair' double taxation. PHEV drivers pay a flat 1.5p/mile even on petrol miles, where they already pay 53.95p/L fuel duty. We believe this discriminates against those who adopted hybrids in good faith to reduce emissions.
Apply the 1.5p per mile levy on hybrid cars only on electric miles driven
From April 2028, the UK Government plans to introduce a mileage-based road tax of 1.5p per mile for hybrids, alongside Vehicle Excise Duty. Hybrids will also keep paying fuel duty when using petrol, meaning they are taxed twice, through fuel duty and the new mileage levy on all miles driven.
Remove VAT on all public utility bills
We believe VAT was never meant to be applied to life essentials and it was meant to be a BREXIT benefit. The UK has some of the highest electricity prices in Western Europe! We believe this is why so many citizens struggle whilst energy companies make huge profits, and why GDP is low.
Scrap either EV pay-per-mile tax or Vehicle Excise Duty for EVs. Don't have both
From 2028 electric car owners will pay BOTH VED car tax and 3p per mile. We think this will punish working people and families resulting in around £300 extra for 10000 miles on top of £195 VED tax for many EVs. It's not like the electricity to charge the car hasn't already been taxed.
