    Some owners would turn Labradors into killer attack dogs! But better to ban the overly aggressive breeds, although there would need to be a ‘grandfather’ clause. Putting down perfectly behaved and trained dogs retrospectively would not be good.

    As an employer, I find in general that young workers have an elevated understanding of their value to the organisation, plus they lack resilience. They seek counselling often and see their manager as more of a mother-figure than an employer. I don’t believe this bodes well for the future of organisations, assuming that AI won’t be doing all the work!

    You pay for the space you take up. With leeway for someone with a genuine medical condition, which obesity generally is not.

    If you want to take excess baggage you pay for it. Same principle.

    We have enough crazy rules. Just make sure the men and women are in the correct changing room for their sex. Their real sex, not their magical thinking one!

    Not a fan of tattoos at the best of times. But the Indian Vedic symbol for prosperity or good luck, the Swasti, was appropriated by the Nazis. So banning the swasti is problematic.

    There should definitely be a cap on properties let out on AirBnB. With a maximum number of days per year. This would free up properties for long term rental.

    the implicit but unstated phrase is “excluding unforeseen events”.

    I have 2 bins, general waste and recycling. I try to be careful in separating between the 2, but don’t really believe it makes any difference to what happens to the contents. But I’m playing my part. I don’t control the rest of the process.
