Which law would you most like to change?
I would ban the sale of chewing gum. A persistent source of annoyance and irritation of mine is chewing gum and people’s inability to discard it into a rubbish bin, and instead spit it onto the pavement. The discarded chewing gum then lies in wait ready for an unsuspecting pedestrian to step on it and in my experience usually when you are wearing your favourite shoes or trainers. Additionally, discarded chewing gum creates unsightly pavements and footpaths, and I have no doubt is difficult and expensive for local councils and businesses to remove. For the preservation of good footwear and pristine pavements, I advocate the ban of selling chewing gum.
