Unrelated beyond the Tories being retarded with banning things for no real reason: I've just discovered that they've effectively banned the sale of sodium hydroxide (drain cleaner) and potassium hydroxide (used to make soap), before I could buy them on eBay or get the sodium hydroxide at any super market, but now I have to go via a chemical supply company, taking literal weeks, and paying £7 for 100g of sodium hydroxide, where I used to be able to get 500g for £2.
They're scum for an endless list of things but this has really annoyed me.
