I would just ban retail parks outright. The depress the life out of me! Put shops back on to the high street where they belong and bring our town centres back to life.Drivers in retail park car parks at weekends. Specifically, the quantity of them, which means that on the rare occasion that I'm in the local retail park with the car it takes ages to get anywhere. Most of the time I walk there; there are hardly any traffic issues then. Why does there have to be a traffic jam only when I'm in the car trying to get out?!*
Can we also ban retail parks that are poorly laid out both for pedestrians and vehicle users (who are by far the largest customers, so should be catered for adequately but frequently aren't)?
*Yes, I'm aware of the self-fulfilling irony...
Can we ban any show whose title starts "..The Masked....."
All those people working themselves up into a frenzy over "..who is Fish & Chip cone?..", should go and get a life.
I shouldn't be surprised if we don't get "The Masked Baker", "The Masked Potter", "The Masked Chef" or "The Masked Sewer" soon, as TV producers carry on flogging a dead horse rather than coming up with something original.
Or lack of talent in many cases?I'd ban all TV shows which involve the combination of talent, judging and public votes.
No can't have that. it would create 15 minute cities which the right wing are really scared about now. Being able to walk to the shops is SOCIALIST apparently.I would just ban retail parks outright. The depress the life out of me! Put shops back on to the high street where they belong and bring our town centres back to life.
Related to this, any computer software which changes what you type to what it thinks you should have typed. And, yes, it's usually possible to change, so anyone who makes their software have the default behaviour of doing this.Predictive text on Mobile phones.

Its to give time for an auction for who will buy adverts based on your profile.Seems to be becoming increasingly popular for some unbeknown reason: websites or apps which communicate with a web server (which might take some considerable time, 15 secs or more) and give no visual indication of being "busy". They just appear to hang, but are actually doing something - just not telling the user! And most of these are commercial products developed by large companies so they should know better.
Seems to have been a trend post-Covid but not exactly sure why...
Similar scenes down south, although maybe not quite as common.Wonder whether this is just a North West thing, or something that occurs all across the country?
I got stopped by the plod and made to clean my number plate!Similar scenes down south, although maybe not quite as common.
Something I do see every day is cars that have their numberplates conveniently obscured by mud.
Don't think Plod ever needs an actual reason to stop you, but probably better if they do go pick on someone else.Need to make sure everything else (and you) is ‘clean’, as it gives a suspicious/bored copper an excuse to stop you...
Pretty sure they need a reason to stop you. ie if they want to do random breathtests they set up a speed trap and pull everyone even 1mph over the limit.Don't think Plod ever needs an actual reason to stop you, but probably better if they do go pick on someone else.
“Do you know that one of your rear lights is flickering a bit, sir? Now you’re stopped, can we breathalyse you, search your car, search you, etc.”
You sure? They always seem to give a 'proper' reason from anecdotal evidence.They can stop you to see your driver's license, so it's not difficult for them.
Could be they'd just checked centrally whether you had insurance / MOT/ car tax / a full licence, and wanted to check face-to-face / up close whether you appeared to be intoxicated, or under the influence of drugs, etc.I have been stopped three times for three different reasons and they never asked for any documentation...
My dad was in the police and I remember him saying this to me. This was probably about 25 years ago, but I doubt they've changed the law since.You sure? They always seem to give a 'proper' reason from anecdotal evidence.
I have been stopped three times for three different reasons and they never asked for any documentation (which would have been more plausible than the 'driving erratically' when they were clearly just doing random breath tests at kicking out time).
A neighbour got tugged because the in car ANPR flagged up that his insurance/licence/tax weren't all registered to the same address.
I'd just ban daft mobile games entirely, especially ones like you describe which I suspect are mostly intended for gaining access to the data on one's device via app permissions.We’re getting a bit off topic here ,so to put us back on track: I’d ban these obviously Inappropriate ads but just age appropriate to get on a child’s game (the strip the character ones) in other worlds, I’d tighten the ASA’s regulations
