Should have bought more before the referendum, got 1.29 the night before in a last minute panic.

I assume that you were joking, and not really suggesting that hammers come within the remit of any specific product safety directive? Well played. 16 hours ago, McSpreader said: You'll be amazed to learn that hammers have been made all over the globe for thousands of years quite successfully before a group of highly paid, unelected autocrats in Europe decided they needed to check we had been doing it right all this time. You, however, appear to have taken Strichener's comment at face value and now believe that the EU insist on CE marking on hand tools. No wonder many posters here (including myself) don't think it's worth engaging with you because of the drivel you continually post. As far as I recall, hammers are subject to the General Product Safety Regulations. These regulations don't require any CE mark ro be applied. However, you can prove me wrong. Just name the specific product safety directive that applies to a simple hammer like the one I've pictured below, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In case you don't realise it's not actually possible for a nation state to do that because it doesn't have a face, hands or a hammer big enough. In fact a nation state isn't even animate.

I wish people would stop trying to pick apart every post I make and looking to 'prove' everything I say is drivel. I get it it, right. Your political outlook is different to mine, your view on Brexit is different to mine, Your humour is different to mine, You want to deny my right to speak, You want to 'belittle me and imagine you've beaten me intellectually because you're scared I might prove your views are illegitimate and that would shatter your ego.....I get it.

Brexit aside, why the f**k are 90% of slaughterhouse vets EU nationals? Is there a massive surplus of vets getting trained in the EU?
