Is electric charging more expensive in the UK than petrol? That's nuts.

Is electric charging more expensive in the UK than petrol? That's nuts.
According to [1] it breaks down like this:
EV at rapid/ultra-rapid chargers: 25p/mile
Petrol, diesel: 15p/mile
EV charging at home: 8p/mile
This is because there's a government price cap on home electricity, but not on commercial electricity - and rapid chargers are all commercial (and of course for-profit).
