Underage drinking (under 18), all controlled substances, keeping a pub open after closing time, drink-driving, selling alcohol without a proper license, importing alcohol and tobacco without paying excise, selling alcohol on Good Friday and Christmas Day, smoking in pub/restaurant/offices/public buildings unless otherwise stated, and of course stealing, murder, fraud and all that sort of things!

  10. Complicated...

    It is illegal to vote 'no' to a European referendum. (First time offenders will be given a second chance)

    If you are building something like a road, a metro or any public amenity then the duration of the works should be a minimum of four times longer than expected and should cost ten times more than projected.

    Bribing public officials will not be tolerated unless the bribe is in Sterling.

    All taxes must be paid unless you are self-employed or very wealthy - in which case, some taxes might be paid.

  11. firearms, abortion. divorce and contraception until the '90s!

  12. The only things that I find really exotic for being illegal here is to drink (alcohol) in public and fireworks. The rest are pretty normal.

    Didn't know ABSYNTH was illegal.

  13. All of the above.

  21. Smocks are illegal when did that happen, i like to see peole wearing them especially when they are "smoking" a cigarette outside or if its a party and people are having "smoked" salmon.

    all western countries have similar laws,with subtle cultural twists or what that society deems to be an important issue.

    Yes abortion is illegal here but thats not because it is a catholic thing, many non catholics dont believe in abortion. Its a decision made as a collective society not a religion that makes something illegal.
