"Introduce a 50% VED reduction for cars aged 20–39. High taxes force functional vehicles to be scrapped, creating a "disposable" culture. Keeping existing cars is greener than building new ones, as it preserves embedded carbon."

A laudable suggestion. I can't help but remember that it was a previous Labour government that brought us the Scrappage Scheme, which saw a total of £400,000,000 spent on destroying functional cars over 10 years old. You're looking for another massive U-turn, it would need the government to admit that the then Secretary of State for Business had been wrong.
