Ban on being drunk in a pub, carrying a plank along a pavement or flying kites in the street.
There are plenty of weird British laws that we suspect may not always be strictly enforced (not thatwe?ve ever seen anyone inebriated in a pub, of course).
But what about laws that ought to exist, but don?t?
It turns out what the majority of us are most clamouring for is a law that will force our fellow commuters to stop bugging us, according to Dogs Trust. The charity surveyed 2,000 Britons to find the laws people most want to see introduced in 2016.
But employers, watch out: The four-day working week also makes the top ten, listed below:
1. Ban on playing loud music on public transport
2. Fireworks banned (except on 5 November, because if you cannot have fireworks on Bonfire Night what is the point)
3. Ban on putting feet on the seat of the Tube.
4. 60 day retail returns policy for unwanted items
5. Ban hotel check outs earlier than 12pm
6. Absolutely no Christmas songs to be played in public before 1 December
7. ...and while we?re at it, no Christmas adverts displayed before then, either.
8. Compulsory child-free areas in restaurants, hotels and bars
9. Four-day working week
10. Responsibly social media management to be taught as part of the national curriculum
