It's always good to write to your local council/authority and to your MP, also better MP's have very accessible surgeries and let them know that you need to charge your electric car. Try to get your neighbour to write too, it worked for me.
It is terribly sobering to see what influence the fossil monopolists have over car manufacturing.
Tesla became such a success because they understood that charging points were needed, however far you drove you needed to charge, so the charging network grew and so the car sales. Better still the first Tesla's could re-fuel for free!!
NOW it's anyone's guess why no other manufacturer did the same bolt move...
If you look at the spread of digital photography or better mobile phones... these did not get any subsidies, no state program. In order for people to buy mobile phones a network needed to be built from scratch and within 20 years anybody can phone or check the internet from nearly everywhere... and the state even makes some money by auction the rights....I was hoping/dreaming that the same would happen for an EV charging network BUT HEY somebody wants to sell the last bit of oil ... In Germany on huge agricultural areas rapeseed plants were planted to be used in Diesel up to 10%... never mind that even a Diesel engine has only an efficiency of some 35% ... electric 90% and the most efficient 97% electric motor was built some 5 years without the use of rare earth... so yes we are all being held hostage by a very powerful minority! The discredit, delay tactic combined with a flood of irrelevant info works so far.
Anyhow, note that the energy transition is unstoppable and even Mr. Burns will get it at some stage.
