As part of 'Making Tax Digital' the UK will soon force people to use proprietary software to file certain types of tax return. If you disagree, think people should have control over their data, that HMRC alone should be in charge of HMRC's job, that you shouldn't have to pay random companies just to pay your own taxes, I suggest you sign this UK e-petition:
With the roll-out of Making Tax Digital going ahead, HMRC must provide an in-house, government-developed, fully-functional software that allows easy and confident compliance with MTD. Self-employed people should not be obliged to hand data to private companies.

Not directly, but in the UK there's a national Cycle-2-Work scheme that employers can offer:
You choose the bike (and/or accessories) you want.
Your employer buys it for you, and you pay them back out of your salary before taxes, over (usually) a year.
I did this last year, and got a shiny gravel e-bike for commuting and saved about a third of the cost.
Among friends, I am the only one who actually commutes on their C2W bike!

The lads know what they're doing. They've started on stools so that they can stand up for the key change. You can tell they're professionals.
