What he said 👇Our own Chris Pateman-Jones telling the House of Lords yesterday that we need more positivity from our political leaders to help us deliver a fair EV transition.
⚡️🔌Our CEO @ChrisP_J telling it like it is at a House of Lords Committee on how to achieve a full but fair EV transition. He urged the Government to get stuck into the public discourse - counter the clickbait, big up the benefits and connect with consumers🎥⬇️ #connectedforgood

Important letter from ChargeUK to the PM today: please stick firm to 2030 and an ambitious ZEV mandate - we need this to secure the £6bn of investment we are making in charging infrastructure, to support green jobs, to create affordable EVs and to meet our net zero targets👇👇
We have written to @RishiSunak urging him to stand firm on the Zero Emission Vehicles Mandate. Industry is investing over £6bn in EV infrastructure and needs a strong ZEV mandate to unleash more investment, create new and green jobs, and ensure the supply of second hand EVs.
