Here's a question. I don't see asked. When the country speeds toward Electric cars and the tax take on petrol goes to hell in a handbasket, where will the government replace their loss of petrol tax from? I can see mileage tax being introduced.
Wherever a government reduces tax take somewhere it grabs it from somewhere else. Tarif reductions on these imported items will line the pockets of the importer and not assist those in the community struggling with cost of living, there is only an expectation to pass these on.
