I maybe a cynical old sod, but does it not seem hypocrisy when the new Govt has not yet announced that it is scrapping its contract for Luxury BMY 7 series (I think)vehicles, when by their own admission a fleet of clapped out old corolla's could probably do the job?

Woops, it also includes three new Audi e-tron, three new BMW X5 plug-in hybrid electric (PHEV) SUVs, While the BMW 7-series currently make up the bulk of the chauffeur-driven Crown fleet, the Government has been diversifying its fleet over the past couple of years.

I do know that Labour entered into the contract.
