So a whole load of people went out to purchase e scooters to support this great nation.

More details

Because it’s miss leading of mr Johnson to say on national tv one thing and then change his mind the next.

But you can only use a rental scooter provided by the local rental firms

I don’t feel it’s fair

And I’m sure the British public don’t think it’s fair either.
