If the EV is driven in the EU, where the UK tax does not apply, how is the UK only mileage reported as it won't add up to the odometer reading? How is this legitimate avoidance handled vs fiddling the odometer?

Yet another example of so-called "free market economics". Amazing how the USA cries foul when China legitimately decides to buy soy beans from a BRICS country because of Taco's ridiculous tariffs. Trump's economic illiteracy is not China's problem. It has many other partnerships in the world. If the west didn't want the Chinese economy outgrowing it's own then perhaps the greedy capitalists shouldn't have outsourced their production to Chinese cheap labour. But capitalism == greed and exploitation, so no surprise. You've made your bed, now lie in it.

China supplies precursor chemicals (NPP, ANPP) to Mexico where the Sinaloa Cartel and others synthesize the finished product. Most of it is shipped across the southern US border. It's disingenuous to say China is supplying Fentanyl to the USA - like supplying fertilizer is supplying explosives. The so-called "war on drugs" has demonstrably failed. And the definition of stupid is doing the same thing and expecting a different result. Perhaps dealing with why people feel the need to use drugs in the first place would be more successful?
How is it many on the right do not understand the concept of correlation and causation and that both may exist independently or concurrently? I guess denying science in order to pedal conspiracy theories based on ignorance may have something to do with it.
Excellent /s. Institutionally racist and misogynist UK police get to decide who is allowed to protest - what and where. Why do failing governments reach for the authoritarian handbook? Because they are cowtowed to special interest groups and their own self interest and couldn't care less about the people that elected them. The myth of so-called democracy. Protest has produced some of the most beneficial change - Suffragettes / votes for women anyone? Lack of protest is the path to a fascist state. Exactly where the powerful / wealthy want to be - no change, or ability to change, suits them just fine.
How long before the, now normalised, sending in of the national guard, is used to stop anyone / everyone from stealing (yes, /s) the next election from taco?
