The FT's focus on #taxation has moved on to the taxation of motoring;

As they point out (currently) zero-rated #electricvehicles count for around one in six car sales & #fuelduty accounts for around 2% of all Govt. revenue; with no other changes the shift to EVs erodes the UK effective tax base.

FT's solution is mile/road pricing. To manage this shift they suggest running the two systems in parallel with the latter managed via EV's internal software reporting.

Q. is: who could sell this idea?
