    The truth is that Royal Mail seem to be completely clueless about what is genuine and what isn't.

    If they've learned anything from the Post Office as is they make haste slowly they're on a nice little earner

    Particularly as they seem to have difficulty telling the difference themselves:lol:  The report I saw showed that some 40% of those collected that were rejected were in fact genuine:oops:

    it's not in need of some form of regulation.

    Unfortunately in this case the regulation has gone silly.   I live in an area with a high lead content in the soil (it was for many centuries a lead producing  area) and the village is old.  There are families here that have been around for generations all living, even by modern standards, to a ripe old age despite growing their own food. Yet regulations now stipulate when building new that the top 300mm of soil are removed and treated as hazardous waste if it leaves the site,  but it can be deposited in a layer on another part of the site hat is outwith the build area.

      Farming and growing continue all round and play/recreation areas are still on the "same" topsoil.  What absolute stupid bureaucracy.

    Still I suppose it does help discourage some developers.

    Yep some of those need introducing to court too?

    In this case I do not think it is the politicos but suspect the senior civil servants protecting their own/their "mates".

    And I thought all religions taught moderation, forgiveness and acceptance.

    Evidently not Wokism

    The Wokerati are offended by everything they think might offend someone, somewhere regardless of whether their activities offend many.

    Some may want to project a neutral or even left leaning stance but the motive will be power and profit a right wing objective. 

    And the left are not in it for the same for themselves - pull the other leg it has bells on:lol::lol::lol::lol:
