• Also don’t expect the average copper to give a fuck about the intricacies of how a law is written. Like when squatting was made illegal in residential properties, but now it’s de facto illegal in any property because all any cop heard (or wanted to hear) was “squatting is illegal”.

  • Yes that is of course an issue, but I guess that’s why laws are written down and not just whispered into a cops ear.

  • Well yeah, but the law isn’t enforced on paper. And whilst you might find that the actual letter of the law means that you’re not on the end of actual criminal proceedings, this change could make for a significantly more unpleasant police interaction.
