LOWER COSTS FOR MOTORISTS 

• Support British designed  motor vehicles, using British green steel. Especially for lowest priced small cars. 

• End London's Congestion and Ultra Low Zone (ULEZ) Charge  zones and Birmingham’s CAZ (clean air zone). Everywhere in UK.

  e-fuel replacing petrol and diesel. 
  
  
• Government to directly manufacture green e-fuel and sell cheaply, without taxation, direct to public, using current petrol stations.  See end of this page for more detail. 

• Have E5 and E10 petrol the same price. 
  
  
  
• Lower Premium Tax, so car insurance is more affordable, to 1994 rate of 2.5 per cent. With no higher rate, as in 1994, that includes travel insurance (that has within it medical insurance when abroad).
  
  
• 4x4 motor vehicles to be same car tax as normal cars. 

• No longer require UK car manufacturers to build and sell electric motor vehicles. 
  
  
• No longer require UK dealerships to sell electric motor vehicles. 
  
  
• Government to buy back to recycle electric and hybrid motor vehicles.
  
  
• Reduce electric charging points for electric motor vehicles, til none left, so energy saved to keep down electric prices for consumers and businesses. 

RECYCLING CAR BATTERIES 

• Invest £500 million in four state-owned metal reprocessing plants to reprocess / recycle cobalt and minerals used in batteries.

• Invest £50 million in state owned drop-off points and battery collections sites

BETTER DESIGNED ROADS 

•  Use Road Traffic Accident Investigators, RAC, AA, Green Flag, and other accident prevention bodies like Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) and Road Safety Foundation, to research better road design, to progress to lower motorist deaths. 

• Not only fill in potholes, but resurface roads. Research using recycled plastics in making the tarmac. All roads, not just motorways and A-roads, including rural lanes. 
  
  
  
• End Smart Motorways and bring back hard shoulder wide enough to fully open driver's car, van or lorry doors safely, when vehicle breaks down. 
  
  

DISABLED BLUE BADGE HOLDERS 

• Free car tax for all with UK disabled blue parking badges. 
  
  
• More disabled 24-hour free parking bays in village hubs, towns and cities.

  e-fuel for current motor engines. 

• End tax on parking your car, motorcycle or bicycle at work. 
  
  
  
• On private fleets (that make up half of all new vehicle purchases) put waiver on the excise duty surcharge for electric and hybrid electric and green fuel company cars and vans. 
  
   
• 1 per cent company car tax for e-fueled company cars (back to Benefit in Kind (BiK) rate for 2021-2022 tax year).  
  
  
  BENEFIT IN KIND TAXES FOR DRIVERS 

• As basic income tax falls to 10p in the Pound from 20p in the Pound, less BiK to pay by employee using company car. 

• Lower BiK to 5 per cent for green e-fuel company cars; from current rate of drivers paying BiK at 10 per cent (2022-2023 rates). 
  
  
• Lower to 3 per cent for smallest cars / vans, as driver now pays  6 per cent BiK (2022). 
  
  
• Either way, it’s far less than the 20 per cent-or more rates that apply to petrol and diesel cars.
