Also I can’t see how they’ll work for logistic firms. How could a lorry go fully electric and if it did, how heavy will that battery have to be to power it? It would literally take all the weight of the lorry, you’d have this massive 18tn lorry but the payload weight would be tiny.

Yes PM Starmer needs to get more Chargers Built
