Trouble is do they pay tax on it, and do they store it in the UK, or offshore.

PS I notice that we have slipped down to 6th richest country, I think we need to own a few more of our assets, and take back control of the profits (and taxes). FL2 XS SD4 Auto 2010 2012-2017 (21k - 91k miles) (MY2011)

2013 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Baltic Blue

Its very odd, The Death of the Diesel
Who is conning who

Is it just to make way for all the diesel generator farms being built in the UK to be able to supply the surge required when Mr Green arrives home with his "green electric car " to be charged by a diesel generator farm supplying the national grid ?

Makes my blood boil

So were all giving up our diesel cars due to the failing of the government to invest in power stations so now we burn Diesel fuel to generate
Even worse is plant and machinery doesn't have to comply to Euro 5/6 regulations
