A Rochdale man has been forced to charge his electric car through a first-floor apartment window after being told to remove his self-installed charging point.
Joe Keating installed the device for his BMW on the wall next to his parking space at his rented Falinge home in a drive to slash his carbon emissions and save on fuel costs.
But soon after, he was sent a letter from managing agents Stevenson Whyte asking him to remove the power-point - a move which he says is “heavy handed” and shows a reluctance to support the “green agenda”.
