ICE vs EV, the debate thread
Your passionate advocacy for MG vehicles, often feels so entrenched in its own echo-chamber that it becomes challenging to take your views on EVs, particularly MGs, at face value. It’s easy to present heavily biased information sourced from questionable origins, but achieving true balance is far more difficult when arguing from a position of bias. For instance, you criticised the Celerio’s safety performance while comparing it to a car that similarly lacks NCAP or ACAP ratings for the 2024 model - at least none that are readily available. Moreover, you seem to double down on tangential points, such as the “steel stat” mentioned earlier, as though it fortifies your argument when in reality, it diverges entirely. By this logic, you might next argue that China’s dominance in global semiconductor production somehow validates MG’s superiority. Yes, much of the world’s manufacturing is rooted in China; that’s common knowledge. But citing this does little to address someone’s valid preference for another manufacturer, such as Suzuki. It’s not necessarily disdain for MG or Chinese manufacturing that prompts objections, but rather the overt and repetitive bias in your presentation. I’ve teased you in the past about your palpable enthusiasm for MG, not because I harbour a personal dislike for the brand (though, admittedly, I’m not a fan), but because your overzealous advocacy often tips the scales too far with bias. For example, while MG vehicles may offer competitive pricing, they are not inherently superior to their European, Japanese, or Korean counterparts. Their appeal largely stems from affordability, which is why you chose one. Let’s be honest, if Tesla, Kia, or VW were priced equivalently to MG, it’s unlikely MG would have been your first choice. You’ve made your decision based on personal preference, which is perfectly valid. However, the volume of cherry-picked and unbalanced commentary you share often weakens rather than strengthens your argument. Sometimes, it’s enough to simply state: I like MG because they’re well-priced for what they offer. The same can be said for the Celerio and countless other vehicles within that price range. -

Well an interpretation would be that since it's "ok" to have Socialist death squads, it would be ok to kill murderous Socialists too? -

It's a proven fact you might get a letter back from them in a month but until they solve your class two or class 3 pension contributions can take up to two years easily call them and find out. By the way I would recommend that you check your contributions in 2007 there's a lot of pensions missing for that year contributions.
