Tesla Motors Club

Every so often I scan the main part of the Daily Mail website after looking at their MoneyPages (which are quite informative). I've noticed that they seem to have taken a very 'anti' view on the recent announcement that the UK should move from new ICE cars by 2030 and on electric cars in general. There are numerous negative articles on electric cars - mostly by by columnists who have 'tried a few over a 'period' of time'. The old favourites are there: cost to buy, difficulty charging, running out of electricity etc. However, the more worrying issue is in the comments to these articles. There appears to be a significant proportion of people advocating damaging electric cars, cutting cables, vandalising charging stations and so on. I understand that in most cases this is anti Boris Johnson rhetoric but as events in the US show, it doesn't take much to whip up the masses to a fervour. In my case, I've only ever experienced people who are very interested in my car but wondered if anyone has experienced negative views.
