A Merseyside MP has called on the Government to invest in a Liverpool City Region town's electric vehicle charging points infrastructure.
Conor McGinn, MP for St Helens North, made the call after he discovered that Department for Transport (DfT) figures, published in January, show that some London boroughs possess up to 35 times the number of publicly available electric vehicle charging points per head compared to St Helens.
Improving St Helens ' infrasturcture will bring to an end the damaging electric vehicle postcode lottery affecting it, and promote cleaner, greener transport across the borough and North West, the Labour MP said.
