Hello @Mi-Amigo

O2 community
date stamp changing to 23.00 hrs YES (does not seem reasonable)
fastest finger first in challenges and quizzes NO ( ok as uses brain and knowledge to work finger)
Companies

(unacceptable as not regulated and uses private information from the DVLC, unreasonable behaviour if someone makes a mistake)
TV Ads
Co-op Funeral Plans YES
(distressing and mentally pressurising)
Quick Quid Payday loans NO
(useful for some, needs regulating, interest charges far too high)
Equity Release (money out of a persons home) with Carol Vorderman YES
(persuasive and uses family situations to embarrass older persons to consider taking out loans on their homes with the added celebrity of C.Vorderman who knows nothing about it)
Bingo on line sites YES
(better to enjoy a night out at the Bingo hall or pub bingo)
TV Progs.
Britian G.T. voting with heart YES (not fair)

Universal Credit (replacing benefit) YES (not properly thought out and not carefully rolled out)
Sport

Grouse Shooting (cruel and unacceptable) YES
Greyhound Racing (cruel and unacceptable as these animals are mostly
kept only for racing in difficult and unpleasant circumstances for them)YES
Pheasant Shooting (cruel and unacceptable)YES
Golf Open Tournament NO (can't see why not ~ not hurting anyone?)

a little confused as to your post ^^^ as your previous votes were included in the totals; and snoring and golf Open tournament were voted not to go in.
