The EU has recently passed legislation that will force manufacturers to make appliances easier to repair, and make spares available to customers.Regarding kettles, I can remember the days that when the element had worn out, it could easily be replaced.
Nowadays, you have to toss the kettle out and purchase a whole new one, which contributes to extra landfill waste.
Another small example of how the country has ended up in the terrible state it is in these days.
Just as well we got out, eh? *eyeroll*
