On behalf of my countrymen I can only apologise.

I honestly dislike him as much as you and it's worrying that we're increasingly turning into another US.

As others have mentioned though, the road tax rules (we pay very few tolls) have changed in the UK in April meaning it's now a lot more expensive to buy EVs than it has been in the past.

I expect that if you looked at other manufacturers in the same time frame their sales would have increased a lot more than Tesla's.
