They also misrepresented the stats around hybrids by adding mild, this month. I class them the same as Transport & Environment - I can't trust them so I don't refer to them.

It was a few months ago but saw Tristan Young call them out, as you say of course SMMT will for toe treading on.

And now I'm cross with myself for looking at social media and making myself angry. I shall now put down the internet as it is not making me a nice person currently.

Added on top, they are using data from New Automotive who has been regularly bollocked, publicly, by both experts and SMMT for making their stats up.

Cannot shame the shameless.

Oh man. So sorry to hear that.

The very best of luck for the future!

I think you’ve oiled the gears for more fun. I’m sure everyone will be happy to hit top gear with the puns.

Yep. Thats what I mainly took from it, people with no integrity supported by the channels that publish their drivel.

He handles that well, also highlights an increasing element too, people happy to create utter tosh and drivel for no reason other than hopefully make money and “go viral”. It’s not just videos but organisations who publish “reports” full of lies knowing no one reads the details.

Integrity is key.

Are they not looking at the real world and what is ACTUALLY going on?

Also, they’ve missed off a big one, WE DON’T HAVE THE DISPOSABLE INCOME!!!!

Where is that from? The Government?
