Electric car charge points on every street

A priority of the mayor should be expanding the network of electric car chargers.
With many Londoners who own vehicles not having driveways it is important to realise the infrastructure needs to be there to support the change to electric vehicles.
In addition to every street having these charging points (where feasible - ie there are already car park spaces there, and space) I also propose all new developments put in electric charge points as standard.

This will allow new investment by individuals in electric vehicles and drive forward a green revolution that will not only benefit those driving said vehicles with cheaper charging and more available charge points, but also those enjoying the fresh air with less pollution.

Madness given the demand for electric charge points and that I would be paying...
