Which, IMO, is a good thing.
It's total b0llocks though, and heading toward a totalitarian state.

They've already got on their way to banning biking with this new test that makes it ridiculously expensive and difficult to get a license.

Personal freedom's are very rarely given back once they are taken.

Set of spineless, lying, money grabbing commie ba$tards need setting on fire.

+1 Chris totally agree most of the laws in this country are knee jerk reactions, we don't need most of them and serve to undermine the people.....having been studying parts of law you wonder why, the law is an ass.

I don't think banning it would work, would just create a black market in it right now I would have though. Smoking not in pubs yes good idea, this is totally a wrong idea. I don't smoke it makes me ill, but I see as way of removing another freedom.

As for bikes, we are an easy target we have no big lobby groups so they do what they want, but I would hope they would never try to get rid of bikes, the new test is like why do we need it? What we have is fine now, its a form of control.

I don't enough about it, but has this come down from europe to standrised the test, or is our government at work again? Why are we of the only countries that does what europe says? We should attach our warships to this island and pull far away from europe its nothing but greif, along the way push a few a few people off, I would start with the government
