Rachel Reeves is upsetting everybody with £300 car tax change - now she's got a new enemy

Rachel Reeves has finally upset everyone. Drivers, manufacturers and the car industry have already turned their axe at the Chancellor over her latest EV tax fantasy. But if that wasn't enough, Labour now has a new enemy who is just as furious over her 3p per mile electric vehicle charge as everyone else. Now the UK's car dealers are getting ready to wield the axe.

The maths alone paints a frightening picture, with motorists travelling an average of 10,000 miles per year set to splash out £300 per year on the Government's electric Vehicle Excise Duty (eVED) fees on launch. The staggering fees have guaranteed that Labour's latest cash grab has been highly controversial, and it's not even here yet, instead pencilled in for a 2028 launch.
