Scrappage graveyard???

Its not just MG specific, but first of all what is the strength of opinion here on this site?
The thread has been viewed 228 times by I assume 228 different people, how about some opinions guys?

I could use this as a gauge for a more general consensus amongst the "classic car" fraternity.

Unfortunately 228 viewings is just that, I, for instance, have viewed at least 4 times.

Any petrol head would sign a petition, as would many greens who would rather recycle than build new.

Just checked it out and found that a guy called Jake Dormer started up a petition a while ago which finished in 2016, he managed to get just under 40,000 signatories, but the cars still sit there...….

I think you need 100,000 signatures before the government will take it seriously

petition

That is a massive number of signatures, and 40,000 signatures was very commendable

This months Practical Classics mentions a recent petition which collected 10,000 signatures trying to prevent the scrappage of "historic vehicles", but the governments response seems to be to pass the onus on to the dealers/ car manufacturers managing their particular scrappage scheme as to whether or not to crush the vehicle or pass it on to a specialist breakers.
That seems fair enough if the car dealers can be bothered to do that, but I doubt if they are so emotionally involved in keeping old vehicles on the road as perhaps we are.
That doesn't answer the question of what is happening to the cars already scrapped and sitting around on redundant airfields.
