They won’t be satisfied until they have annihilated the European car industry and got us all riding bikes made in China who are the largest polluters on the planet.

It will be passed back to us in the end as usual. And the ones who will end up unable to meet the increased cost of motoring will be the poorer end of the market once again. Not the ones with the big gas guzzlers

The car manufacturers of Europe successfully lobbied against proposals by the EU to introduce minimum fuel efficiency standards for cars quite a few years ago now. Who are the real losers there?

Looks like the EU is coming back for a second go now the focus has moved onto CO2 emissions in more recent years.

Think how much petrol costs in the UK, is it really such a bad thing if the result is cars with significantly improved fuel efficiency. Resistance to change doesn’t surprise me though.

its not going to matter who opposes what, the little band of Hitlers that run the EUseless are in this for to long term profit

they are there for their good and not the peoples, if they do as they want and fine countries for emissions, it will be the EUseless that profits. all the while knowing the fines are smoke and mirrors

they may be committed ? but to what really and who?. the eruocrats will soon learn they have put themselves under a dictatorship and nothing less.

the fines will all inevitably fall on us the tax payer, until we are reduced to begging for hand out from the rest of the sensible world.

why is it 90% of the world scientists say we cant stop global warming and its side effects, that it is part of the natural evolution of the Planetary cycle. yet governments tell us we can stop it with TAX

profit and power

It may just prove to some narrow minded and blinkered British people, incapable of seeing things from anything but their own perspective, that other European countries sometimes have issues with the EU as well and that the EU is not a pseudonym for the national government of Germany or France.

… but then I doubt it.

Like all other fines they will be regarded as a source of revenue for whoever is responsible for policing the legislation but do you not mean carbon monoxide?
