> You seem to be confusing home/destination chargers and rapid chargers

Well, or they went to https://ionity.eu/en/network/network-status or https://www.zap-map.com/live/ looked at Manchester and it listed only one Ionity charger, "Manchester East".

Doesn't really matter, but that's one location that contains multiple chargers.

Of course, very few people that live in Greater Manchester would use a really fast charger like those there whilst in Greater Manchester. Maybe if you're a taxi driver, or caught short somehow? This is the confusion I was talking about.

It's still one location. If I live in Trafford is easily a 45 minute drive, much worse at peak times.

> very few people that live in Greater Manchester would use a really fast charger

Because obviously we all have driveways and we can leave the car there overnight. Fuck 'em terraces scum. /s

[jasoncartwright]

Like many UK EV owners I don't have a driveway either and use a lamp post charger overnight.

[toyg]

Good for you, but I'm pretty sure there isn't a lamppost for every car out there.

[jasoncartwright]

Luckily not every car needs charging every day, plus there are extender bollards for the gaps

[toyg]

This.
