This will have to be explained in some detail.

I don't love collecting points, all of these points coincide
with getting electric cars and have been 'just' over the limit.
Before anyone else jumps in, I know this is not an excuse, but
is there any need for such smug condescension? If you don't wish
to help, then simply don't.

What relevance does the cars being EVs have?
And 6 & 7 mph over a 30 limit is not "just over".
Nobody is being smug or condescending - just warning of a
possible hurdle.

I qualified the statement by saying I know it is not an excuse.
I ahve personally found EV's to take some getting used to in
terms of accelaration, but to be clear I appreciate this is down
to me and not an excuse.
Just over referred to the 9 points already on my licence,
apologies I did not make this clear.
As for nobody being smug or condescending, I suggest you read
the last sentence of BertB again.

It wasn't my intention to be smug and condescending and I
apologise if I hurt your feelings however you need a reality
check.

You have had 3 convictions and another 2 instances of speeding
in 16 months. Plus a speed awareness course somewhere in the
last 3 years. At this rate, any special reasons argument you
make seems academic as your ability to avoid these instances
appear to be very difficult for you.
Or to use the scenario I was arguing against being likely, 'So
Mr Bluejay, you have had 5 instances of speeding in the last 16
months yet here you are saying you need to keep your licence.
Why should we let you when it just seems to be delaying the
inevitable?'
So what are you going to say that you have done to modify your
driving and avoid future points? And why didn't you do it before
when you were on 9 points?
If you think I'm being condescending, you're going to hate the
prosecution.
