On some things the UK is progressive, on other issues, like sustainable transport, they see it as antisocial behaviour.

Is this a joke? Don’t UK police have better things to do?
Yes they do. That’s why they’re asking the general public to snitch on themselves.
The police has been underfunded and understaffed for decades as a result of Thatcherite economics treating public services as businesses and austerity policies, meaning the bar has got quite low for policing standards, making it a breeding ground for abusers with small amounts of power, all the while being too corrupt for any of them to do anything about it.
