Road pricing seems to be their preferred option here, as the revenue from fuels falls away.
Quite so Dave.
This is what's dishonest about the arguments of the cost-effectiveness of EV's, as it only costs a few quid to fill up. As soon as there has been significant take-up, the government will start taxing electricity use for cars in some way (likely, as you suggest through road-pricing) to replace the revenue lost from the decline in the sale of hydrocarbon fuel.
