Our predictions:

Some help for the industry in general, such as listening to those who favour giving help to encourage people to get rid of their ‘old bangers’.

We have heard that the Prime Minister has pledged to help finance the electric car industry and we can expect further measures to encourage green and clean driving, eg

• further increases in scale and fuel benefit charges for dirty cars
• increases in fuel duty
• concessions for going electric and being green.
• some help for the industry in general, such as listening to those who favour giving help to encourage people to get rid of their ‘old bangers’.
