Re: What Are They Going To Ban Next????

Okay, here's the latest lunacy. The Nanny State is going to introduce legislation to make all bath taps thermostatically controlled at a lowish temperature, starting with newly built homes and eventually extending it to all homes. Why? Because out of 55 million of us, 600 people a year manage to scald themselves in baths! Fine to do this for elderly and confused folk, who may forget that they have run a very hot bath - but for the rest of us? Also, they don't have to pay for it, we apparently do.

Do we ban road traffic next because some idiots jaywalk?
