The petrol and diesel car ban set to come into effect in 2030 is an attack “on the working class” and will lead to only “the rich” being able to drive. The policy was also planned to accelerate the UK’s green transport future and encourage more to switch to electric vehicles.
However, Express readers have attacked the plans which could leave “poorer motorists” priced away from car ownership.
Express reader Danspill said: “So how are working classes supposed to be able to afford electric cars that are much more expensive than fossil fuel cars.
“I buy second-hand cars £300 max which I use to get to work.
“A trip by train would take 3.5 hours and cost £65 return daily having to go into Central London then back out.

Trevor Ammanford said: “36 million motorists in this country are not going to forget this.”
Shropshirelad added: “There will be a revolution by ordinary people long before then – this madness will stop.”
Dunderuffian said: “If politicians want me to drive an electric car, they can pay for it.”
Patricia Evans added: “It will be too expensive to work.
“So what will the elites do when there is not electricians, [medics], your local shopkeepers, sewerage workers could go on but no one will work as they will not be able to afford to.”
