ByronBayChris Posted 1April, 2016 Report Share Posted 1April, 2016 In a majority vote, the lower house of Dutch parliament supported a motion to no longer allow new sales of petrol or diesel cars from 2025. The action was brought by the PvdA, which would bring forward Netherland’s commitment to full electric transportation by decades.If followed through on (via a Labour motion for the Cabinet’s support), in 2025 only sustainable, zero-emission cars will be available to be purchased.http://insideevs.com/netherlands-moves-to-allow-only-all-evs-by-2025-no-more-gas-diesel-sales/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tazzieman Posted 2April, 2016 Report Share Posted 2April, 2016 From the personal archives Harvs? Ever so slightly disturbing , however you came across this image.

Harvs11 Posted 2April, 2016 Report Share Posted 2April, 2016 No need for the accent. The Dutch (or Belgian if you go back far enough ) last name is a giveaway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
