United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Well no shit, if you need this article to tell you there is a lack of charging points then you aren't really paying attention to them, maybe it's better in built up areas but the closest one to me is over an hour drive.
Definitely better in built up areas. I've never had a problem with one, even on 4+ hour journeys on motorways and A roads. From what other EV drivers say though I gather the problem is worse in the north than the south.
Yeah I'm in the outskirts of Manchester, there's plenty in the bigger cities but I live quite far from any
Not even any at any supermarkets? Supermarket is a great location as you stick it on charge while you do the weekly shop.
The biggest supermarket near us is Morrisons and I don't think they do have them no,I checked a charging point map and it doesn't say they do
Worth checking manually next time you are there. The maps aren't always up to date. Sorry it's hard finding a local charger.
