Default 306 Uneven tyre wear

I replaced the front tyres on my diesel about 3 months ago, checked the tyres this morning and found the nearside tyre like this.



Compared to the offside


I took it to the nearest garage who said it was because 306 diesels do this to tyres going around roundabouts Sounds like tosh to me so I thought I'd get a second opinion. I have checked the tyre pressures and that seems fine so not sure why the tyre has worn like that after only 12 weeks?

That was my first thought but it was only done a couple of months ago, also would'nt both tyres be showing signs of wear?. Mind you when you're not driving over a speed hump you are going down a pot hole around here.
