I am starting to see growing concern about the blocking of pavements with these electric car charging cables. The more these electric cars come about, the more chance of it ruffling feathers with disability activists. I can envisage stronger legislation over the coming years to protect pavements from any obstruction, be it cars or charging cables. The debate is starting to open up. 

Yes, the debate is probably 'opening up', in the comments pages of the Daily Mail/Express. 

 

In reality, a good dose of common sense is needed by all.

The common sense is needed by the car drivers, to stay off our pavements.

Not when they are erected 3 feet in the air...it's also a trip hazard, especially for visually impaired people. 

I haven't seen a single one of these "erected" 3 feet in the air causing a hazard.

OK so that's one example of one motorist about 80 miles away being a wally and using a wire that's not long enough. 

How about the millions of other electric or hybrid car owners?

Yes seen those before actually in use. That won't stop a numpty trying to use a wire that's clearly not long enough though, but not much you can do about that.

Indeed.

But you have to admit, making umpteen cuts to funding, passing the cuts on to local councils, then blaming the councils for the failing services, is a very neat bit of Tory buck passing don't you think?

Got to hand it to the Tories, when it comes to devious manipulation they are the Masters... 

got some news for you. .. Nobody  wants to pay more tax, nobody.

You don't seem to mind the Tories being the highest taxing government since World war 2.
