As it’s been planned for years it is far too late unfortunately! It will not attract attention without a minimum of 100,000 signatures and even then the chances of a Parliamentary debate are slim to non-existent. It’s a done deal.
However, trying to get special dispensation for vintage and PVT vehicles might be worth a go?
I’m learning to live with it and will be draining my tanks for winter.
Does anyone have a contact for affordable avgas?

In our area Bagby Airfield (AKA Bagby International) is the place.

We are having absolutely no problems with E10 nor do we anticipate any.

I admit I have also gone over to the dark side.

My elderly 'modern' is supposedly OK with E10 fuel, but monitoring the fuel consumption over the last few months shows about a 10% increase since the E10 introduction; E5 is readily available round here at a 7% mark-up, so I'll be using that in future.

If we use E5 in modern cars the longer it will remain on sale.

On the continent Super unleaded is E10.
I expect it will be the same here soon.
